down to the final 3; time running out

[Scottie1234]

Hello, we're sat in the antenatal ward waiting and waiting... now trying to distract ourselves by finally making our minds up on boys names. Would love to get some objective opinions, as we are struggling a bit!
'Safe' option is Louis (French pronunciation)
Other two slightly more out there choices are Ray ( not Raymond) and Nelson. What do you reckon?

I like Louis

I like Louis or Nelson.
People will call him Lewis though rather than Louie.

All lovely, sorry not helpful.
I think I'd go with Louis.
Would Nelson be after Nelson Mandela

Oh actually I think I prefer Nelson Ray now.
Oh I don't know. It's so hard isn't it choosing names

Nelson ray sounds lovely

Louis.

Good luck!

Thanks all, appreciate the responses.
Yep, choosing names is a nice distraction - but surprisingly stressful once you've got a deadline!
Nelson Ray is pretty cool 😊
Mandela not the reason for us thinking about that name , but it can't hurt having such great associations. Yes the Louis/Lewis confusion has given us pause for thought too - but maybe it's not an issue once you've corrected people a few times

Louis

Louis. I'm not keen on the other names to be honest but Louis is lovely.

Most of the time you tell people your child’s name rather than thdmvseeung it written down so the confusion over a pronunciation isn’t massive.
I like louis but that because it’s the safest of your choices and I’m not brave to use such a cool name like Nelson.

Isn’t Nelson the bully but in the Simpsons?

I think Louis is lovely but I really don’t like Ray or Nelson, they just make me think of someone middle aged and balding rather than a cute baby.

I don’t think people will pronounce Louis as Lewis. It’s a completely different name

I really like Louis and Nelson.

Good luck!

I'd go for Louis.

Louis Nelson sounds good

Louis

Louis

Louis! Nelson is a pub name

Love Louis, but Ray is also, a very cool name, so I'll choose Ray ! 😄

Louis Ray sounds cool. Not keen on Nelson personally but that's just me.

Love Ray. Very different.
Louis is very bland imo.
Nelson = bully from the Simpsons.

I'd go with Ray definitely. It's a lovely name.

Louis's are everywhere. I'm so bored of it

I really like Ray and know a 4 year old Ray. It really works for him

Nelson makes me think of the bully from the Simpson's but it's not a bad name

I really like Ray. Short, snappy, bright and underused yet not unheard of. Louis is OK, but I’m not keen on surnamey first names so Nelson gets third place.

Ray - love it

Louis
