We can’t decide between two names!

We are completely stuck between two names for our little boy. Lucas or Freddie (Frederick). Please could I have your opinions!! Lucas seems easy and no need to shorten. Frederick would always be called Freddie which I love and don’t have a problem with either. But we just don’t know!!

Frederick

Love Freddie. It seems everyone does, if popularity bothers you? The last three newborn baby boys I know have all been called Freddie!

I really don’t like Lucas though, so I’d still pick Freddie.

I prefer Frederick nn Freddie

I prefer Frederick but just personal preference as never liked the name Lucas.
Luke is nicer imho

Is your baby here? Sometimes it's easier to wait and see which name suits them better.

Lucas. It feels less babyish on a grown man than Freddie!
