Elijah David Spencer

Ezra or Isaiah.

Ezra - but I'm completely biased, as I have one, who turned 10 in February.

The name has got more popular since we used in - in 2008 it was only ranked #500 (in England and Wales) - and in 2016 it was #91. DH and I were expecting it would get popular one day, but perhaps not as quickly as it did. However, I don't think that's a bad thing, I just see it as us having good taste!!

Elijah. Lovely.

Ezra

I like them all but think Elijah sounds best in combination with the other names.

Stinkbomb · 08/03/2018 23:43

Ezra

PremierNaps · 08/03/2018 23:47

Ezra

I love them all! I love Elijah but really dislike 'Eli' and the pronunciation of Isaiah differs loads, so for that reason Ezra.

Emilly86 · 09/03/2018 06:09

Would go go Elijah

CPtart · 09/03/2018 06:43

Elijah, but prefer Isaac or Zachary in a similar vein.

Madeline18 · 09/03/2018 06:44

Elijah

Twooter · 09/03/2018 06:48

Depends on your surname - some H surnames can be hard to say after Ezra, and some H surnames don’t flow after Elijah. Those 2 are my favourites.

gigi556 · 09/03/2018 06:56

I LOVE Isaiah. Always have.

backsackcraic · 09/03/2018 07:12

Isiah , when I said them out loud without David I found that just rolled off the tongue!

See Isaiah was my favourite, but I started to panic as it was quite a mouthful to say. So started leaning towards Ezra which is my husbands favourite.

Isaiah. Such a great name.

I like all your choices though.

heateallthebuns · 10/03/2018 22:19

Isaiah is more unusual I think and I like it better. Although I don't know anyone called any of them except in the Bible.
