@Newnamenewname109870

It's pronounced Jo-Un. It's just like the pronunciation of the name Rowan but instead it begins with J 😊

If I had been a boy, I hope I would have been named Robert Francis.

Dustyspringfield1 · 06/07/2023 20:30

I like Michael, classic.

Raphael - always been a favourite but I feel it doesn’t work for a Scottish couple with Scottish surname and husband doesn’t like it anyway.

I found out I’m pregnant with a boy so it’s been good to read through this thread for ideas.

Meerkatdog · 07/07/2023 13:06

Yes Raphael is lovely, as is Gabriel, neither felt right for our boys, but love them on others.

Evan
I didn't use it as weirdly it wasn't on my radar when had my ds.

Yay! Aw, second answer is my son’s name. Gets misheard for Kevin which I didn’t foresee. Know another Evan the same age and there’s one further up the school too. Friendly name!

Koa, which I fell in love with the moment I heard it. We’re using it for our son on the way ❤️

I think Cody is a very cute name but a lot of people seem to dislike it.

Kelljo83 · 09/07/2023 22:02

This is a lovely name

Greycheck · 09/07/2023 22:29

Adam is my all time favourite. I also love Rupert.
