[cantdecide123]

Please let me know your thoughts on my shortlist....

Freddie
Joel
Max
Elliot
Jack
Leo

Already have DS1 called Isaac

Sorry sent too soon.

I love the name Joel but my fave to go with Isaac is Elliot

Isaac and Elliot

All lovely although perhaps less keen on Joel

I have an Elliott and Isaac so my vote goes to that combination

Leo.

Love your list apart from jowl

Elliot is lovely

Elliot (DSs middle name. Love it don't know anyone else who has used it)
Joel only know one, he's a family member who 30. Lovely man which colours judgement but I also don't know of any others.

The rest of the names are spread evenly between my youngest 5 and my middle child 14 so have been around for years.

We have a Max too.

All are nice - except Joel!

Freddie- not keen on diminutives being used as full names so if Frederick is on the BC then it’s fine but otherwise no
Joel- bit outdated
Max- again with the diminutive point, Maximilian, Maximus, Maxwell then fine
Elliot - it’s ok
Jack- quite like it and it isn’t as common as it once was
Leo- Leonardo maybe.

Leo or Freddie

I love Leo too

Freddie - Its a bit posh sounding to me and I don't like it for an adult which leaves you with Fred which I think is awful
Joel - I like it
Max - I like it
Elliot - nah too flouncy
Jack - I like it
Leo - I like it

Issac and Elliot

Elliot

Hey, I have a DS Isaac.
Were trying for a baby and I'm already thinking Joel for a boy.
It's growing on me.
I like classic but not overused names.
I've only ever known of 1 Joel.

I like Joseph too, but it's BIL middle name and I don't like him too much, wouldn't want him to think baby was named after him! 😂

Love Leo! Agree with pp think max and Jack are nice names but they stick in the throat a bit when you say them with Isaac. X

Freddie - too much of a nn imo and doesn't go so well with Isaac
Joel- Love this, goes well with Isaac too
Max- Perhaps too rhymy with Isaac as others have said
Elliot- Love this, would go really with Isaac
Jack- Doesn't sound quite right with Isaac, also v popular but for good reason
Leo- I like it but Joel and Elliott would be my faves

Jack Leo Elliot Freddie or Max are all lovely!

Freddie - it's a diminutive
Joel - yes
Max - ok
Elliot - ok
Jack - ok
Leo - yes

Dd would most likely have been a Joel, still love it 😊

Freddie, not keen
Joel, like
Max, it's okay
Elliot, it's okay
Jack, like
Leo, like

Isaac and Joel or Isaac and Leo sound the best imo

Freddie - Nickname / abbreviation
Joel - Meh
Max - Okay.
Elliot - Don't like it.
Jack - Good, solid name.
Leo - Awful. Animal or chav.

Have we helped you narrow it down @cantdecide123

Yes you have all definitely helped thank you. My favourites were much like almost everyone else - Joel, Leo or Elliot. DH liked Freddie but I think this thread has put him off a bit! (Thank you I don't hate Freddie at all, just not my top name). He's open to any of the others, which is why we are so undecided!

I also had reservations about the Max/Jack sound with Isaac but had been told in RL that I was overthinking so was glad to have some support on that
