James or Henry?

[Thomas17]

What do people think of these names for DS due soon?

James

Nice classic names

Love James.

James but love both

James!

Henry just makes me think "horrid" or that king that beheaded his wives..

James

Henry, just prefer it to James.
All the James’ I know get called Jim, even a little 3 year old, not to my taste.

Both lovely, but James is my favourite boys name.

Both nice. I prefer Henry .

James

James. Such a great name.

James... one of the best names ever

James

James is my favourite boys' name.

I like Henry too, but not as much as James.

Both are nice but I prefer James

There seem to be a handful of James' at each age.
There are very few Henry's mid primary upwards, but loads in Reception /nursery. Henry sometimes gets called the much more popular Harry.

Both are great names (why do you think I know the distribution round here!).

James. To my mind, Henry is a hoover.

Henry

Are these your final 2? If it has to be between these names then Henry wins

James

If your surname is Hoover then Henry, if its Dyson then James.

Both lovely. I'd go with James

James

I have a Henry and if I'd had another boy, he would have been James.
Not very helpful I know but they're both lovely strong classic names

Both are lovely. Henry has increased in popularity in recent years while James has always been quite popular.
