Baby boy name help please

[coopekid]

DH and I just can't decide on a name for our baby boy. Surname is Richardson.
DS1 is Dylan.

Four names in the running currently.
Which do you think is best? ☺️

Ivan
Jude
Joseph (My preference, DH not so keen)
Caleb

I like Caleb best, but also like Jude and Joseph

Who does he look like? Look at his adorable face and he will tell you his name xxx Congrats btw - happy days!!

Of your list, Jude, then Ivan then Joseph. I dislike Caleb.

Before I saw your list, I was going to suggest Morgan.

Have always loved Joseph; that would be a clear choice for me. Dylan and Joe; perfect!

Jude or Caleb. I'm with your DH on Joseph (sorry Mom!)

Your list also makes me think of -

Jesse
Cole
Alec
Neil
Davis
Tyler
Eric
Rory
Adam

I love Joseph and Caleb.

Could Jacob be a compromise?

Jude or joseph!

Caleb
Or Joseph
Jude is very popular right now
Ivan is a bit too close to Dylan

Jonas
Jonah
Jethro
Jerome
Ivor
Idris
Kester
Josiah

Joseph is lovely.

Also like Josiah and Joel.

Would also suggest: -

Reuben
Rowan
Jonathan
Adam

Patrick
Charles
Jerome
Judd

Joseph or Jude!

I've always loved Joseph but I think Jude Richardson sounds nice and goes well with Dylan.

I love Joseph! Jude is ok too but I’m not keen on Ivan or Caleb.

Dylan and Jude go so well together

Great list! My favourite is Joseph (I am completely biased as this is DS's name). I like Ivan and Caleb and Jude is ok.

Joseph I love it.
Joe is such a lovely name and suits a baby and a grown man. It's a classic and not too popular that it's everywhere
Goes well with your surname too. Both Joseph and Joe

How about Johnny? Johnny Richardson sounds cool

First thought: so many biblical names: Jude, Joseph, Caleb.

I personally like Ivan most on your list followed by Jude.

Joseph is a solid name but overused. I know so many Joseph's and Joes of all ages that I've lost count.

I like Joseph and Caleb best from your list.
Not so keen on Ivan but really like Ivo.

Jude 💯 such a cool name!

Dylan and Julian (Jude)

Thanks so much for all your thoughts mumsnetters, keep them coming!!

@MrWoodhousecanfeeladraught
@cisisaslur Couldn’t have put it better myself - however DH’s main objection to Joseph is ‘Joe’. 😅

@continentallentil Also not so keen on popularity of Jude at the moment, I seem to know quite a few little boys with this name. @Pieceofpurplesky But Dylan and Jude do sound good together don’t they!

@continentallentil Also crossed my mind Ivan and Dylan are very similar. @BrokenMantra I like Ivo, not sure if Ivo could be used as a shortened form of Ivan.

@FrogletandMe Love the name Joel!

Dylan and Caleb Richardson.

Suggestions:

Dylan and Jeremy
Dylan and Nicholas
Dylan and Benjamin
Dylan and Kurt
Dylan and Thomas
Dylan and Fraser
Dylan and Elias
Dylan and Jonah

Jude!

My favourites are Joseph and Jude but, as your DH isn't keen on Joseph, definitely Jude. (As you don't say, I'm assuming you both like the other 3 equally?)

Ultimately you have to both agree, so Joseph is probably out I'm afraid.

I like Jude the best,but I noticed on another thread where people told of the names of the most recent babies they know born, that Jude featured alot.

I also really like Caleb and think it sounds lovely with Dylan.

If your partner doesn't like Joseph then I think you need to disregard it, especially since there are 3 other names you agree on.

I like Ivan but dislike having sibling names ending the same. Love Ivor though
