They're all lovely! My favourites are Cameron and Sebastian x

AdaColeman · 09/01/2022 10:21

All nice names, but I wouldn’t use Oliver as it’s been a top ten name for some years, so there must be lots of them.
Sebastian and Felix are my favourites.
Cameron is my least favourite.

freelions · 09/01/2022 10:22

Cameron gets my vote

bobbythevet · 09/01/2022 10:22

Daniel

Santaisstilleatingmincepies · 09/01/2022 10:22

Imo consider the possible nn that will come from each...

UserBot989 · 09/01/2022 10:23

Daniel

Gardeningcreature · 09/01/2022 10:24

Daniel then Oliver. Felix at a push.
I really don’t like Sebastian I always heard Bastion or Bastard sorry.
Cameron reminds me of a very naughty child I knew. Think being expelled for behaviour type.
Daniel won’t date.

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 09/01/2022 10:25

In order of preference

Felix
Daniel
Cameron
Sebastian
Oliver

Aaa456789 · 09/01/2022 10:32

Cameron is a classy name I love it!

Holly60 · 09/01/2022 10:36

Sebastian and Daniel are my favourites. Timeless classics.

ellenpartridge · 09/01/2022 10:54

Oliver

Second choice Daniel

Fivebeanchilli · 09/01/2022 10:59

Sebastian is my favourite but I love Felix too.
I really like Oliver but it's super popular.
Cameron is ok. I really like Cam as a nn but (and this is just personal) I've never met a Cameron who wasn't annoying.
I find Daniel a bit bland.

Luredbyapomegranate · 09/01/2022 11:05

All nice apart from Cameron, I’m also not mad about Felix.

I suspect Daniel might be the most unusual right now - and I like that a lot. So that or a Sebastian for me.

NannyR · 09/01/2022 11:10

I love Daniel and it has good nickname potential, Danny is lovely for a little one and Dan is great for an adult.

CakeRattleandRoll · 09/01/2022 13:01

Felix. Lovely meaning also.

Footnote · 09/01/2022 13:02

Felix

BettyfromBristol · 09/01/2022 16:08

Daniel. I've never known one who wasn't lovely.

RedCandyApple · 09/01/2022 16:11

Daniel isn’t unusual there is loads in my kids school

I don’t like Cameron or Sebastian the rest are ok

Riverlee · 09/01/2022 16:26

Good strong list.

Why don’t you wait until baby is born to see what suits him?

We had a name sorted but decided it didn’t suit him when he was born.

Xanadu58 · 09/01/2022 16:47

Sebastian

MajorCarolDanvers · 09/01/2022 16:50

Cameron is a million miles out ahead.
Oliver and Daniel are not at all bad.
Sebastian and Felix sound like names for cats to me.

Go with Cameron

DramaAlpaca · 09/01/2022 17:26

Daniel is my favourite.
Then Oliver and Cameron.

Sebastian and Felix are at the bottom of the list by a long way.

17caterpillars1mouse · 09/01/2022 17:39

Daniel is my favourite

Followed by Sebastian NN basti and Cameron

I like Oliver too but it's too popular for me and I'm not a huge fan of Olly

I don't like Felix at all

RavenclawsRoar · 09/01/2022 17:40

Sebastian is my favourite. Really dislike Cameron.

LongestBedtimeStoryEver · 09/01/2022 17:43

It’s tough as they’re all nice (though Oliver is way too popular at the mo), but my order would be:

Cameron
Sebastian
Daniel
Felix
Oliver
