Elijah or Theodore?!

[Ilovethekitties]

Help!

I cannot decide, middle name will be Cooper (my Grandparents surname).

Or any other suggestions?!

Thanks MN.

Love Theodore ❤️

Eli
Ellis?

Am biased because I have an Elijah. He is my youngest and not everyone liked it at the start but he has definitely grown into it. He would prefer to be called Mark or Jason though.

I don't like either sorry, but Theodore is better than Elijah.

Of the two, Theodore, but only because I'm not keen on Elijah, it's too religious for me.

Out of the 2, Theodore, nn Teddy.

Or have Cooper as the first name?

Love love Elijah
Theodore is nice but there are so many Theodore's, Theo’s around

Both are lovely so you can’t go wrong.
I have a Theodore so I am slightly biased towards that name. It means gift from God.

I love biblical names so I vote Elijah. Theodore always sounds a bit pompous to me.

Theodore!

Neither. Theodore is waay too popular and Elijah sounds and looks so soft and strangely spelled.

Cooper is great!

@Lavenderblues I like Cooper too, but DP thinks it's too american sounding 😭 any other suggestions??

Oh, I love Elijah! It was always on my list, but had 4 consecutive DDs!

But Theodore is quite nice, too. Good choices, OP.

I love Theodore but I will say it has got pretty popular in the last ten years.

I love both and both were on our list. However, Theo is pretty popular if that’s an issue for you. Elijah/Eli is a bit ‘cooler’ I think.

Love Theodore! Another suggestion is micah (my-cah), Luca and Benjamin.

Theodore
Or just Theo.

Always loved Elias as opposed to Elijah, my boy was nearly Elijah but went with Xavier instead x

Love Elijah! Don’t really like Theodore although I do like the nicknames.

I love Theodore and dislike Elijah so easy one for me.

Theodore. Not keen on Elijah at all.

Elijah. There are loads of Theodores.

I'd go for Elias instead.

Neither. Elijah seems babyish and I don't like the overpopular Theodore.

Elijah for me
