Which do you like the best? Please vote

[Leadfromtheheart]

So I've got my favourite baby names for a little boy
I like names which are slightly different but not too out there wondered if people could help me narrow them down, which do you like the best ? Please vote
I appreciate they will be not everyone's cup of thats but that's OK
In no particular order

Cassius
Cruz
Rocco
Cyrus
River
Ralphie

Just realised I guess I'm liking the Cs and Rs 😁

Thank-you all for taking the time to share your thoughts, opinions and votes appreciate them all x
Still have a little while to decide though
Being honest i think Cassius is my favourite followed by Ralphie x
May even go for something totally different when I see his little face 🥰 I can't wait so excited xx
Take care everyone gave a great day x

Like all apart from Ralphie. I'd vote Cassius

Exciting times ahead! Good luck @Leadfromtheheart

Ralph or Raif? You could squeeze Ralphie from Ralph if you felt you had to ( poor child) but Raifie would be even worse.

I agree, Cassian is lovely

My grandad was a Ralph, always known as Ralphy.

I’d always pick a full name for formal purposes and use nicknames which might change more casually- eg I know a few Samuels who have been known as Sammy when children, then Sam as they got older.
Cassius is also cool.
The other names sound a bit try-hard.

Cassius - like
Cruz - traditionally a girls name (one of the appellations of the Virgin)
Rocco - OK
Cyrus - OK
River - Whovians (and there are A Lot of them, will think River Song, a brilliant female character)
Ralphie - only like as nn for Ralph

Prefer Caspian to Cassius.

Cassius - sounds like cassis, too Roman general for my taste
Cruz - noo, it literally means cross
Rocco - make me think of Robocop
Cyrus - ok I guess
River - hippie and mostly used for girls
Ralphie - Ralph is ok, Ralphie only cute while small

Ralphie

Cassius

All really ovely apart from River imo x

Meant lovely!

Not Rocco or Cruz. It’s so wannabe sleb.

Ralph and Rafe.

My son has a friend at pre-school called Ralph and he is the sweetest little boy. So that would be my vote 😊

Rocco!

Cassius or Ralph (nn Ralphie). Don't like the others.

Cassius
Or
Ralph
Not keen on the others

None of them.

River

That was the first thing I thought too... we're showing our age here!

I like River (River Phoenix was my first sleb crush, RIP )

Also one of the characters in Mick Herron's Slow Horses books is River someone, isn't he?

Cassius - Clay?
Cruz - Beckham vibes
Rocco - Madonna vibes
Cyrus - Billy Ray or The Virus
River - Just about ok (unless your surname is Banks, in which case, just don't)
Ralphie - fop, luvvie

Sorry!

Cassius is my fav
Rocco is great too
Good luck x
