Skyler or Tommy?

[namethoughts]

Down to our two favourites and undecided.

Skyler or Tommy?

I've never heard of Skylar being unisex? It's very feminine.

Tommy as a nickname for Thomas is alright.

Between the 2 then Tommy, as Skyler really will not be received as a boy’s name at all.

Sorry. Skylar.

I know a few Skylar's who are girls, and it's moving up the ranks on the girls side. Prefer Tommy

Skyler

Thomas nn Tommy

Not Skyler.

Tommy (I would use as a nn for Thomas, which I love)

Skyler I’ve only heard as a girls name and isn’t to my taste for a boy

Depends if you are having a girl or a boy.

I mean, I'm not keen on Skyler, but that's the one (from your choice) if having a girl. I'm not that keen on Tommy, but that's the one (from your choice) if having a boy.

Skyler is just awful OP, sorry. And if you want 'Tommy' then do the decent thing and put Thomas on the BC to give the boy a choice as he matures.

I thought this was going to be a guess the gender post, also didn't know Skyler as unisex... don't like it for a girl anyway though.

I have a Thomas though, so biased perhaps 😏

I am bucking the trend but have only heard Skyler as a male (both American though)

Tommy

Tommy

Tommy will be Tom by the time he's about 9 I should think. And that would be a good thing.

Skyler? Nope.

Skyler is an anglicised form of the Dutch surname Schuyler, and just makes me think of the Schuyler sisters in the musical Hamilton! If you name him Tom, or Thomas, he has options as to what nickname he wants later on.

I do know a very successful middle aged man called Skylar (different spelling though) 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

On the basis that Skyler is awful, I’d go with Tommy!

Isn’t Skyler the wife in Breaking Bad that everyone hated? Go with Tommy much better for a boy.

Neither. But definitely not skyler

Skyler sounds a bit dodgy to me, like skiver or shyster. No offence to any Skylers out there.

Sorry neither. I detest the name Tommy. Tom is not too bad, and Skyler is just awful.

So Peaky Blinders or Breaking Bad ?

Tommy and mine doesn't have Thomas on his bc . As an adult he can always go by Tom if he chooses. Mines 13 and still goes by Tommy

This!!!
