What do you think of Wilson nn - Will? Do you have any similar suggestions?

Other we like are Oscar, Elliot, Barnaby, Ralph, Jacobi, Fabian and Joseph. Nothing leaping out as a front runner!

I really like it. To all the comments of castaway, that film was released nearly 20 years ago. I can't imagine anyone he grows up with having even heard of it.

I like Wilson. I know of one who is 10.
Or how about Willem?

I like Joseph too.

Wilson is lovely and not too common.
I quite like William too.
However, I probably wouldn't use these names personally in case of teasing (willy...).
All your other names are lovely and similar to what we considered.
How about Jacob, Leo, Theodore, Gabriel or Rafael?

I think of the Nextdoor neighbour chatting over the fence in Home Improvement (shoeing my age?)

And Castaway.

I prefer Oscar but it is very popular which might not fit the bill if you are in search of an unusual name.

An abysmal law lecturer.

I quite like Wilson with Will for short. I'm not a fan of most surnames as first names though, and prefer William or Wilbur.

@Mumratheevergiving

This is what people picture when they think of Wilson
Absolutely this.

I prefer William or Wilfred even.
