The only one I really dislike is Rowan. The rest are great names

Holly60 · 19/10/2021 20:50

Jude or Ethan are my favourites

  1. Rowan

Ethan and Leo are both lovely and it would be a tie for me tbh between the two.
Max is nice, but would depend on the middle name (if you have one) to whether I would go for it.
I really don't like Jude and Rowan, to me they sound a bit pretentious but that's just my opinion. 😊

Max / Ethan - joint first place
Leo
Rowan

Jude (a long way back)

Cantstopthewaves · 19/10/2021 21:17

Max- traditional with an edge
Leo- strong, traditional but modern feel.
Jude- a bit edgy. Still traditional.
Ethan- past it's time. 90s vibe. Dated.
Rowan- will date. I also think of it as feminine.

All great names!
However, I'm less keen on Rowan and Jude than the others.

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 19/10/2021 21:55

Max for me, it's nice and simple, fairly classic and the least popular/trendy of your choices. I love the sound of Rowan but it's really on the rise, as are your other picks (apart from Ethan which has already peaked), so I think Max is likely to be the most timeless.

lottiegarbanzo · 19/10/2021 22:07

Jude
Max
Leo

Rowan (Nice just not my cup of tea)

Ethan (Really dislike this, sounds wet, farty and like an incomplete name, much like Nathan - whereas Nathanial / Nate is lovely).
