Which boy's name?

[dayonara]

Trying to choose between the following. We like quite traditional names, not bothered about popularity but would prefer something not too trendy.

William
Benjamin
Samuel
James
Gabriel
Theodore (nickname would be Theo)
Elias

William James sounds nice

I like the combination of James Samuel.

The top half of your list is very classic and names that you can’t date. Bottom half is very 2010s.

Also partial to William/Billy and Joseph/Jos.

Samuel

Gabriel.

Gabriels always turn out handsome and intelligent (with lovely strong arms).

I also love Samuel/Sam. I've never met a Sam I didn't like.

Williams can be a bit wet.

William, Benjamin, Samuel or James. Don't like the others.

James is evergreen if a bit sensible.

Elias Samuel

Agree with James Samuel

Favourites are Gabriel and Benjamin.

Least favourites are Elias and Samuel.

William - ok
Benjamin - ok, bit too popular imo.
Samuel - meh, overdone
James - nice
Gabriel - seems trendy to me
Theodore (nickname would be Theo) - trendy and weak imo
Elias - like, but it's trendy imo

James and Gabriel are my favourite.

I love Samuel and Benjamin

I like William, Theodore and Gabriel. William is probably my favourite.

I have a Samuel, so my vote goes there

Great names.
I have an Adam James and a Luke William (who was nearly Benjamin).
My least favourites are Theodore and Gabriel, the latter sounds effeminate to me. Also like Zachary, Edward, Evan, Christopher, Alexander.

I know a William who gets teased with Willy a lot.

I prefer Samuel.

William, Benjamin and Elias are my favourites!

Benjamin or James

William James

Elias Benjamin.
I like Thomas James.

gabriel

I love Samuel, James and Benjamin.

I am not a fan of Gabriel or Elias. And though I like Theodore, I think it's having a bit of a moment at the moment, where the others are truly classic names.

James Benjamin has the best rhythm, and it has a distinct sound that doesn't run together. I like all of your names but Samuel. I hate how it sounds like it has a mule in it! Ha-ha.

I like them all except Gabriel, which feels quite religious and also trendy to me.

My favourites are William, James and Theodore.
