Cassius / Cass

GoodbyeLondon · 01/01/2023 12:35

I like Jesse, River and Cassius. Of those, I think Jesse is my favourite and Cassius is my least favourite (because I don't like it in a British accent, so it depends where you live).

I don't like Presley or Cruz.

brusselspout · 01/01/2023 12:49

Not keen on any of them but especially not River, Cruz and Presley.

All prentenious trying to be edgy/earthy/ American etc.

Agree. Sorry!

WhileMyGuitarGentlyWeeps · 01/01/2023 12:53

None of them.

Newnamenewname109870 · 01/01/2023 12:54

No to Presley as reminds me of Elvis who was attracted to a kid. (Sorry not sorry).

Cruz also not so much as sounds like cruising or trying to be a beckham. Not especially cute.

Out of the others I like Jesse. Cool and a bit different but also sweet and well rounded.

Caspar or River

Cassius, maybe

However, a very silly name would be River Cruz.

That's fucking brilliant! 😂

Bugbuggerit · 01/01/2023 12:58

Am not a fan of any of these names but if I had to choose I would go for Jesse

Fireandflight · 01/01/2023 13:01

None of them.

Amadeaa · 01/01/2023 13:02
  1. Jesse, 2) Cassius, then maybe River, the other ones are a no from me
jackstini · 01/01/2023 13:15

Jesse or Cassius

WishIhadacrystalball · 01/01/2023 13:18

Names are so personal although not these exact names they sound similar to what I like but my DH was not in agreement 😂 The only one I wouldn’t use is Jesse purely because I wouldn’t want people to call him ‘a big Jesse’ which is a term used where I am from.

inquisitorgeneral · 01/01/2023 13:21

Jesse or Cassius.
I don't like Cruz unless you have a cultural or religious reason for choosing it. On your average white Brit, it seems very "Beckham".
River is okay.
Presley - hard no.

Velvetbee · 01/01/2023 13:22

Cassius

Mumofgirls2017 · 01/01/2023 13:52

Cassius or River

BlueSuffragette · 01/01/2023 13:54

Sorry OP but I'm not keen on any of them.

Azafata · 01/01/2023 14:30

Hunter
Santiago
Xavier

BedTaker · 01/01/2023 14:37

Out of that list, Jesse.

By miles.

Rauha · 01/01/2023 14:39

Cassius

TwoBigNoisyBoys · 01/01/2023 14:42

Jesse is my favourite 🤩

Highlyflavouredgravy · 01/01/2023 14:43

All dreadful

GingerFoxInAT0phat · 01/01/2023 14:45

I’ve got a Cassius and wanted to name my second Jesse but dh hated it.

Those are the only 2 out of the list I like.

donquixotedelamancha · 01/01/2023 14:45

River as a first name and Cruz for a middle name.

Might as well lean into it.
