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???

Love both names - you have excellent taste!

GoodUserName · 28/04/2020 23:04

Love them both but prefer Thomas

Thefaceofboe · 28/04/2020 23:33

Thomas goes better with William but both names together lack originality.

Thomas

Thomas, not keen on Vincent at all.

HelenaJustina · 29/04/2020 07:05

Thomas goes better with William but I have a soft spot for Vincent

BatleyTownswomensGuild · 29/04/2020 07:36

Thomas hands down. If I've had DS2 he would have been a Tom...

Don't do Vincent - it's either gonna be Vincent which you might like but your child might not? Or Vinny - do you like this ??
Thomas is fine. Lots around but it's a good name.

Thomas more same style as William...
Both good classic timeless names .... Vincent less so how about Van Gogh brother Theodore ... much as I like the art really not keen on the name!

Williams brothers....Harry/Edward/Charles/
Alexander also works...

Vincent timeless easy to spell but uncommon, every second boy at my school was called Tom- so dull.

MikeUniformMike · 29/04/2020 10:58

Vincent isn't uncommon where I am. Naughty boy's name IMO.

Tom is much safer and less likely to date.

Grufallosfriends · 29/04/2020 11:36

Vincent! Cool and memorable.

Tom, Dick & Harry is all I can think of. Dull and overused.

William and Thomas are fantastic names.

JMC04 · 30/04/2020 16:23

Thomas 😍

Marimari93 · 01/05/2020 09:13

Thomas Tommy
Vincent Vinnie.

I prefer Thomas & Tommy. Vinnie sounds like the weak leak in a cheesy mafia movie.

Thomas by a mile

WatcherintheRye · 01/05/2020 09:22

I really like Vincent. Will and Vinnie go very well together! Maybe Thomas as a middle name?

Juliaplus4 · 01/05/2020 22:49

Can't go wrong with Thomas.

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 01/05/2020 23:15

I like them both.

Vincent so cute!
