Quentin, really like it!

They're both becoming more popular (in London anyway).

I like Quentin!

Isaac seems tricky to spell for some.

Quentin

I like Quentin. It maybe does have a bit of a posh vibe, but I actually don't mind that here. Isaac is nice, but it seems a bit dated to me - I only know ones in their very late teens and early 20s.

Definitely quentin! I know loads of primary school Isaacs and no quentins at all!

I don’t like Quentin prefer Issac

lebkuchenlover · 05/12/2018 23:12

Quentin is great.

Isaac is nice. Quentin, hell no, it is a bit strange and so wussy.

nocluenoidea · 06/12/2018 04:34

Isaac 100%

nocluenoidea · 06/12/2018 04:36

Unless he is destined to be a public school boy, or a massively intelligent geek, I really don't see how a child would be able to pull off a name like Quentin

lebkuchenlover · 06/12/2018 07:19

Well, the 8 year old Quentin we know is neither. He's a lovely cheeky boy at our local primary school.

Also, Quentin Tarantino or Quentin Blake aren't exactly 'wussy' Grin

I prefer Isaac.

pipilangstrumpf · 06/12/2018 08:14

We have a Quentin and are definitely not posh. He's a big, sporty 13 year old and seems to 'pull his name' off very well!

I much prefer Quentin.
