It's interesting to me that James is so popular on this thread, but it has been declining in popularity for years. It will probably drop out of the top 25 names for the first time since records began when the 2021 name data is released.

Patrick Eli Malachi Seamus
I love all these. Eli was supposed to be the name of my dd if she was a boy! Lovely name. Seamus is lovely also and I’ve never met one before.

If my two girls has been boys they would have been Luke and Zachary (if it was up to me...DH wasn't keen though!)

@DemBonesDemBones

I have a Gabriel and really regret it, it doesn't suit him at all. He's called an unusual shortening of it (you probably wouldn't guess his full name from his shortened name) and I am seriously wishing I'd changed it by deedpoll-he's never been called Gabriel, he doesn't even believe it's his real name Grin
Tell us what us is, please Grin

My 18 year old ds has my favourite boys name which is Oliver.
If I had to choose another it would be Caleb, I absolutely love it!
