Dear all

After much deliberation with DH, boy names we agree on are as follows:

Elias
Ewan
Ezra
Louis
Reuben
Oscar

Ideally we do not want a overly popular name which definitely rules out Oscar and maybe Reuben (which I think is also popular), but hey it’s a small list already as we hardly agree on anything. What do people think of these and which are your favourites?? Also any other suggestions which you think we may like based on this list will be gratefully recieved Smile.

I think Elias fits your spec best.

What about:

Luca/Lucas/Luke
Amos
Toby

I like Elias... also Elijah. Eli would work as a cute nn for both?

Really lovely names OP.
If you like Elias have you considered Esaias (Isaiah?)
I also love Elijah and Eli.
I do like Ezra but there are biblical names I prefer, like Silas, Micah and Solomon...

I like Elias and Ezra best, then Reuben.

Ethan
Benjamin
Robin
Francis
Tristan
Eli
Ezekiel (Zeke)
Edwin
Rufus
Lawrence
Rowan

Many thanks to all who have posted so far. To date Elias is the clear winner and seems to be most popular, followed by Ezra. Ewan/Euan, Reuben and Louis and neck and neck after that followed by Oscar is who a distant last.

My favourites of this list are Elias, Ezra and Ewan/Euan, however I have no idea what DH’s are since he changes his mind like the wind.

Thank you for other fabulous suggestions, most have been discussed previously and vetoed by DH. Angry

Elijah - vetoed
Rowan - vetoed (shame as my absolute no 1 boy name)
Toby - nephew is called this but great name
Benjamin - vetoed
Tristan - vetoed

Ezekiel is interesting and not discussed before, how do you say this???

Please keep rating this list and more suggestions very welcome

y-ZEE-kee-ul.

You might also like Zachary, Zachariah, Jeremy, Isaac, Noam, Ethan, Emmanuel, Immanuel, Eran and Isaiah.

Isaac is a excellent choice but belongs to baby 2’s brother!!! Consequently I think that rules out Isaiah which is also a nice name. Isaac and Isaiah??? Mmm that definitely does not sound right
