Isaac.

Isaac.

Fraser seems like a surname to me and Im not keen on surname-names.

Peachbubble · 10/07/2019 11:26

Fraser, not a fan of Isaac at all

Fraser

Isaac is sometimes teased with I suck Blush

Watersnail · 10/07/2019 12:58

Isaac. Fraser is harsh, like razor and taser.

Divgirl2 · 10/07/2019 13:59

Fraser is a good Scottish name. Not so keen on Isaac

QuickRedFox · 10/07/2019 14:00

Isaac

Isaac!

I really like them both but think Fraser is my favourite. I haven't heard of a Fraser at any toddler groups so think it's nice that's it's unusual aswell.

Butterfly005 · 10/07/2019 15:34

Isaac

Shadow1234 · 10/07/2019 16:04

Fraser by far

99bb · 10/07/2019 16:12

I like both. Sorry.

DramaAlpaca · 10/07/2019 16:27

Fraser by a million miles.

ArchbishopOfBanterbury · 10/07/2019 17:08

Fraser. It's unusual and more timeless. Isaac is nice too but I know 3 little Isaacs.

BikeRunSki · 10/07/2019 17:18

Hard call, both great names, but I’d choose Fraser as it’s a bit more unusual.

JustTheCrowsAndTheBeef · 10/07/2019 17:47

Objectively Isaac, but its popularity and the constant misspelling would put me off. So Fraser.

Thanks all :)

We would be totally sorted if we had a girl, but boy names are not coming easily... these seem to be the only two that we both find "ok"! I want to find a boy name we love, but not sure it's out there! Any suggestions based on these two?

Ezra
Reuben
Caleb
Fergus
Hamish
Hector
Ross
Finlay

Fraser, hands down. Isaac is already 20 years out of date. Fraser has Scottish timelessness about it.

Fizzytonicplease · 11/07/2019 20:59

Fraser! It's my DS name
