Shortlist of five for a baby boy

[Messalena]

Back again! Which of these do you like best and which least? Thanks.

Ray
Cass
Flynn
Lou
Sol

In order of preference:

Flynn
Sol
Cass
Ray
Lou

Lou
Cass
Sol
Flynn

Flynn the most, Lou the least.

Flynn
Ray
Sol
Cass
Lou

But really don't think any of them suit a baby apart from Flynn, the rest sound like nicknames rather than a well thought out string first name.

Agh! Strong*

None is this a joke post?

Flynn's alright. The others sound like abbreviations. Sol is the worst because it reminds me of Sol Campbell.

Lou
Cass
Ray
Sol
Flynn

Flynn is okay
I really don’t like the others, sorry!

Order of preference

Flynn
Solomon (you can always still shorten to Sol)
That's it

In order of preference;
Ray
Lou
Sol
Flynn
Cass

Ray- love this name. It's short, sweet. It also suits a person of all ages, so it'll grow with your child. Also it feels like a full name by itself, not just a nickname.

Cass- as short for Casper, but not a name on its own, too cutesy.

Flynn- I like this name, it seems to be a polarising name. Lots of people think it's a bit dated. I think that's why Finn is becoming popular in its place.

Lou- only as a nickname for Louis/Lewis. I don't think it's strong enough to hold up as it's own name. It is fine on a child but not sure how it'd go on a man.

Sol- I think of Grace&Frankie. Sol is a good name, very Jewish sounding (think Soloman) so good if you wanted to honour someone Jewish, or have Jewish roots. Also can mean sun in some languages, which is nice.

It feels like a list of half names. Out of them I like Flynn but not the others.

Wayne Rooney's just had a son called Cass btw..

All very sweet names! I take it you're a fan of short names OP? I like Cass a lot.

Thanks. We like short names and need something short and sweet to go with a complicated surname. Flynn seems popular but it’s the one I like least!

I like Sol but short for Solomon. How about Saul?

Can't choose between Cass and Lou for the last one, both awful. But Ray is nice.

Really don't like any of them, though Flyn is bearable.

Sound like trashy American names, sorry!
