Help! Sonny, Joel or Isaac

[Lozzak21]

What do people prefer out of

Sonny
Joel
Isaac

Why are boys names so hard?!

Isaac 100% but then I’m biased
Joel next, it’s a cool name.
Sonny I’m not keen on, feels very different from the other 2.

Joel - Sonny is awful

Isaac definitely does get misspelled. There’s an Isaac in the family and the amount of people who write ‘Issac’, including teachers, is insane - it’s like they know there’s two of the same letter and pick the wrong one). I still think it’s a gorgeous name though

Isaac

Sonny is awful, similar to Junior.
Joel ok
Isaac nice.
Joseph?

What will Isaac be misspelled as? I would say most people will spell it correctly.

Oh with two ‘s.’ To be honest I wouldn’t discount it because of this. Sonny could easily be misspelled as its legitimate other spelling - Sunny. Or even Sunni.

In order of preference:

Joel
Isaac (but pp are right it will be misspelled Issac. This may not bother you but it would me)

Then Sonny.

Isaac

I've literally never heard of Isaac being spelled Issac. That wouldn't even be pronounced the same

Joel. Sonny is cute for a child but on an adult, no. Isaac is ok but would expect shortening to Zac.

Although have vague feeling Sonny Pacino is Al's real name...

Joel is underused but I like it. Isaac is very popular which may or may not put you off. Sonny is dreadful.

Joel is a gorgeous name. Isaac I like too.

Yes, I know a Rebecca who always gets Rebbeca .

It also wouldn't put me off Isaac. You'll always get Joe for Joel as well or as a pp says, Sunni or Sunny for Sonny. People being unable to spell names is unavoidable tbh.

The misspelling ‘Issac’ is so widespread that it was given to 119 babies as their legal registered name in 2019.

His name's Alfredo, not Sonny!

@Bortles

Possibly you’re thinking of Sonny Wortzik?

well I know an Isaac very well and trust me, it’s often misspelled like that. His school frequently use this spelling on correspondence as do friends and relatives

Loads of names (and words in general) aren’t pronounced exactly how they’re spelled either - we don’t say the k in knife, or the l in shouldn’t

I know a boy who's name is Issac. Definitely spelled that way, I've no idea why though.

Isaac- lovely
Joel- ok
Somny- gives me the rage

Isaac is my sons middle name, I really like Joel, hate sonny.
Isaac Joel or Joel isaac sound great

Re the Al Pucino chat, there was a character called Sonny in The Godfather (the first one). Michael's big brother.

I like all. Prefer Joel out of the 3.

I love Sonny & have it on my list, didn't realise so many people hated it. Boys names are soooooo difficult.
