Pick a boy’s name from our shortlist

[MyEasterEggs]

Seem to have a shortlist we agree on. But I have a favourite. Which do you prefer?

Blake
Finn
Isaac

We also like the name Lewin but middle name likely to be Lewis so that’s probably out.

Brother Harris and sister Cora.

Last name one syllable beginning with S.

Isaac or Finn. Really don't like Blake. My parents had a friend whose surname was Blake. He was an old man with a flat cap so it sounds old-fashioned to me.

Issac.

@MyEasterEggs 😂 my Harris was always Harris from years before he arrived and I didn’t think it was popular at all, found out it was a boy, thought great itl be Harris then, looked up the name lists and was horrified it was so high 🙈 couldn’t believe it! I had only met one! Now he’s called it there’s another Harris at nearly every children’s party or toddler class we go to 🙄 but I’d still rather have a name I love than something less popular I don’t love! Blake Lewis does sound lovely but every time I hear of a Finn I get a bit jealous at what a nice name it is!

its just so hard to commit to one. Once it’s picked and the baby is called it there’s no going back so it just seems obvious that is the name but the stage before that is so hard! 😅

I also think the majority of people on here are from England and there is a whole different order of names down there so I’d imagine Blake is maybe more popular there and maybe has bad connotations for some people who know a Blake etc but up here it’s not used that often at all, I only know one

Lewis and Harris are the same island!

I love Isaac

Isaac

Love them all. But Finn goes well with your other kids names.

Finn

Blake with your surname, otherwise isaac

Isaac

Finn

I'm torn between blake and finn, normally finn would've been my favourite however if you want to be more unique then go for blake

Issac

Not Blake

Isaac. Finn second choice.

Definitely not Blake.

I don’t think Blake is unique? Shocked to see people saying it’s rare. Among those I know in the UK it’s well known as a bit of a ‘chavvy’ name - there are lots of little Blakes.

I love Isaac but you only have to read this thread to see how many people misspell it as Issac, so that puts me off.

It certainly isn't a 'chavvy name' I went to a private school and we had two blakes who were very well off, I've only ever met other blakes at university. If anything Finn is the 'chavvy' name, it's very common now.

Isaac, second choice Blake 😀

What about Zac if you’re not sure about Isaac?

Everyday is a learning day! I’ve just read the first of the Lewis Trilogy. I never realised Harris and Lewis we’re same island (or that people annually culled gannets).

Isaac

Isaac

Technically, yes. I go there. I know that. And my family are there. But they’re known as the Isles of Lewis and Harris. Not the Isle. Since we’re being pedantic 😉
