Any thoughts on the name Joshua? My husband really likes it, I think I do too but as a teacher have come across some boys with that name who were on the trickier side!

I don't like the sound of it and find it a little dull.

Unusable now because it's so common (as in popular). Seems like there's one in every family.

I have a Joshua. When I was pregnant with him I vetoed the name because its overused/common/boring.
As soon as he was born I 'knew' it was his name.
He was once described by a teacher as 'sparky' Grin
