Jacob (Jake)

I also like Joel, I guess there is a bigger Jewish population in the US which is probably why your DH thinks of it as being American. It's not though, it's from the Old Testament like Isaac.

Elliot. Gorgeous name, and I think they’re perfect together.

daisypond · 18/04/2020 19:11

I think Joel goes best as it’s another OT name. Can’t say I’m keen, though.
I like Elliot, though, and Jasper much more.

bridgetreilly · 18/04/2020 19:24

Isaac and Felix. One laughs and the other is happy.
