I like Caspar. But DH doesn’t.

I like Ezra. DH says there was a famous racist called Ezra.

I like Jonah but have a close friend whose son is Jonah.

I love ezra. Never heard of a famous racist! I think ezra is best known from ezra pound the famous poet, and ezra keats the children's author.

I think your DH is confusing Ezra Pound (poet) with Enoch Powell (racist).

CatteStreet · 07/06/2020 08:43

Ezra Pound had some, to say the least, dodgy views.

Sacha
Oliver
Christopher

Christopher - well due a revival

CatteStreet · 07/06/2020 08:45

(I should point out that all the names ending in -er' only make an 'uh' sound in a non-rhotic accent)

Ezra Pound the poet famously held fascist views.

AncientandPregnant · 07/06/2020 09:25

Yes Ezra Pound was an anti Semite and a facist and DH is Jewish so I think we can’t consider Ezra.

Ezra is so associated with Ezra Pound and therefore fascism that I find it surprising that anyone names their child Ezra these days.
