Theodore - very popular

Sebastian - also very popular

Philippe - like but prefer Philip

George - too popular and royal

Nicholas - like

Raphael - nice but unless you have a family connection could be too tmnt.

Constantine - no, too comic book

Love Nicholas. Not so keen on Nick though.

George is a good solid name, popular but timeless.

I like Theodore with Theo as a shortening.

How many syllables in the surname? If its longer, I'd choose a shorter 1st name like George, if surname is shorter, something with 3/4 syllables can flow better.

Theodore - too popular where I am imo but I do like it.

Sebastian- this would be my choice. I like Seb. Only met one so not popular here.

George - i do like but boring compared to the others

Nicholas - i like but don't like Nick.. depends of you do really!

Elias - not my style

Timothy - i like this too, and like Tim.

Christopher and Alexander are great names.
I think Sebastian goes nicely with them xx

PurpleReindeer2 · 23/07/2024 08:25

My favourites from your list are George, then Sebastian, then Theodore (Theo).

ALittleRusty · 23/07/2024 09:31

I know a Sebastian who goes by Bash which is a bit different from the usual Seb and really suits him.

I also like Nicholas (Nico)
