Hi all!

We are expecting a little boy and narrowed it down to 3 names:

Sebastian
Samuel
Leo

Which one would you use?

I prefer Leo or Samuel.

Mill1119 · 19/04/2023 11:33

Sebastian, Seb :)

DuchessOfSausage · 19/04/2023 11:33

Which one goes best with the surname, and bear in mind that he will be Leo, Sam or Seb?

ThomasinaLivesHere · 19/04/2023 14:37

Samuel

Leo

I know a Sebastian he hates his name, made worse by the fact his siblings have very common names.

Thanks everyone!

We are now deciding between Samuel & Leo! Might wait until he is born and see what feels like a better fit :)

Samuel 💕💕💕💕 but I'm biased as I have an amazing Sam 😍

BridieConvert · 21/04/2023 23:04

Samuel is by far my favourite

saltandpepper86 · 22/04/2023 05:42

Leo is very popular (probably because its a bit chavvy but also "non-chavvy" people use it too

I like Sebastian out of your options

LilyDivine · 22/04/2023 09:22

Samuel. Sebastian is not really my cup of tea because I don't like it being shortened to Seb.

Leo feels more of the moment to me.

Samuel is a classic, Biblical name and I like it when it's shortened to Sam too.

Leo also seems more popular, where I live, so I could see a Leo being Leo H. or Leo T. or whatever throughout school.

Sebastian

Luredbyapomegranate · 22/04/2023 10:53

Samuel - classic and not too many right now

Sebastian is nice but I find it a bit fussy

Far too many Leos and Theos right now

FishFingerWrap · 22/04/2023 10:55

Leo or Samuel

Daisybuttercup12345 · 25/04/2023 23:43

Leo
Samuel
Not Sebastian.
