Will write Alexander/Thomas on the birth certificate. But which name do people on here prefer? Thanks Smile

Perfect name

Tom 😊

Tom
But Thomas Alexander sounds great if you’re going with a middle name too ❤️

Alex but I love Tom too

I have a 3 year old Alex with Alexander on birth certificate

Love both. Alex just pips it I think.

CharlieBoo · 23/07/2020 21:54

Definitely Tom

Love both, slightly prefer Tom.
Current baby is a girl who will likely be Alex(andra) but if a boy would have been Tom. Both great choices :)

Thomas/Tom. I think it's the best boy's name going.
