We have a baby boy due in July. We have 3 names we both agree on but I am struggling to pick a favourite and likely to wait to see him before settling on one. However I am interested to hear others opinions on these names…

Finley Elijah
Rowan Jude
Ezra Jude

Our surname is a one a syllable surname beginning with S.

My ds who is 20 has a friend called Rowan, I've never liked it, but I know most people do.

Ezra is lovely but I wouldn't use it unless you're Jewish, although I know these lines are crossed more often nowadays.

Finley, I know loads. Very popular where I am.

I like Finley but would go Finley Jude as otherwise its a mouthful. Also like Ezra

Nice list of names. Rowan I prefer for a girl and there's a risk with uni-sex names that over time they transition to girl names the way Hilary and Kerry did.

RoMan has catapulted up charts and is on course to enter the top 10 names in the next couple of years. A lifetime of correcting people that "it is a W not an M in the middle". I wouldn't pick Rowan or Rohan anymore for that reason. Look at the statistics:

I like Finley. Had you thought about Flynn as well. Jude is a beuatiful name and doesn't merge with other names.
