Jude - love that name

Mammyloveswine · 21/07/2022 16:38

Jude definitely

20viona · 21/07/2022 16:38

Evan, jude is lovely but really popular.

inmyslippers · 21/07/2022 16:40

Both lovely choices but Jude just pips it for me

MurderAtTheBeautyPageant · 21/07/2022 16:45

I'd go for Evan as it seems that bit less trendy.

Nsmum14 · 21/07/2022 16:47

Evan

DuchessOfSausage · 21/07/2022 17:35

Evan
i really don’t like Jude

AmandaMirandaPanda · 21/07/2022 18:36

Evan. (But I have a "thing" about the Holocaust association with "Jude".)

Skoolsout · 21/07/2022 18:37

Jude

cptartapp · 21/07/2022 18:39

Evan.

Jenjens1992 · 21/07/2022 19:09

I have to say Evan because my son is called Evan lol

User6761 · 21/07/2022 19:10

Evan, great name.

Same as @AmandaMirandaPanda , Jude is completely associated with the yellow stars of the Holocaust for me.

DramaAlpaca · 21/07/2022 19:10

Like both, but prefer Evan.

@Jenjens1992 great choice. Do you have any welsh or celtic connections? We don't - we simply just love the name. I think it's quite an Internationally used name though?

No I’m not welsh or anything me and my bf just heard the name one day when I was pregnant and we both loved it and my family loved it ,it’s such a lovely name yeh it’s used a lot in uk & America not too sure about the rest of the world

Retrievemysanity · 21/07/2022 19:25

I can’t stand Jude so it would be Evan for me. DD had a little friend called Evan (a girl) when she was little and I’ve not come across another since.

Jenjens1992 · 21/07/2022 19:29

Forgot to add it’s still a rare name I only know of one other little boy called Evan

scullie · 21/07/2022 19:46

My son is called Jude Evan so great choices!
