Hamish or Gilbert?

[Mclaren37]

Which name do you all prefer as a first name, Gilbert or Hamish? Pls settle debate between me and DH, thnx!

Gilbert is lovely. Hamish is ok if you're from Scotland.

Hamish. It's a fairly well-known name, I don't think you need to be in Scotland to use it just like Callum or Isobel etc.

I like both! Slightly prefer Hamish

Thanks all. One of us is Scottish.

I don't like either tbh, but Gilbert is really really awful, so for that reason if it has to be one of them then Hamish.

I love Gilbert.

When I read the name Gilbert it makes me think if Giblets...

Love Hamish. Hate Gilbert.

I went to school with a Gilbert back in the 70s, he was known as Gilly. Mind you, there was also a Titus and a Julian in the class too (state primary, Edinburgh).

Hamish. Love it.

Hamish as Gilbert is an ugly name (sorry)
