Vincent or Thomas???

[Mommypower]

I have a son who’s called William and just had another little boy. We’re struggling whether to call him Vincent (known as Vince/Vinnie) or Thomas (known as Tom/Tommy) what do people think???

Thomas/Tom

Thomas. Unless you are in the Mafia.

Vincent.

Thomas. Vincent is a burglar.

I like Vincent - Vinnie whilst little, then Vince when older.

I prefer Thomas, but I think Vincent might be starting to grow on me.

Peeping Tom, Doubting Thomas, Tom Thumb, John Thomas, Tommy nah I just dinnae like it at all...

John Travolta as a mobster in Pulp Fiction that's a yes

Vincent, I love it. Also really like Victor but not sure I could get over the Meldrew association

My little boy is called Vincent. I love it.

Vincent is nice and Vince is lovely. Connie is hideous!!

Tom is great

Tommy

Thomas

Thomas!

Such a lovely name.

Vincent

Tommy

Vincent is ok but he doesn’t sound like he’s from the same family as William, unless he’s Willy it Billy in which case Vinnie goes very well!
Otherwise, I’d probably go for Thomas.
They’re such different names does one not suit him more than the other? Have you tried the flip the coin trick?

Thomas

Thomas seems to 'go' better with William, as a style of name.

But, Will and Vin, Billy and Vinnie sound good.

Vincent is such a 'mixed messages' name; soulful Vincent Van Gogh, 'hard man' Vinnie Jones, and Vince sounds 'tough'. I think it's mostly a British / continental variation.

Having said that, a little Vinnie sounds really cute and there are a lot of Thomases around.

Thomas

Thomas. Vincent no

Tommy

both - first and second name - I have a fab Tom btw

Thomas - yes. Vincent - please no.

I prefer Vincent but I think Thomas goes better with William. I'm not a huge fan of Thomas/Tom though, there are so many in my generation.

James?

Thomas
