Freddie or Joseph but all nice

Roman is the stand out for me! Such a handsome name.

Love them all. James is my favourite.

Joseph. I like Freddie as well. Really dislike samuel and Thomas.

Thomas is lovely. 🥰

James or Thomas by far - so timeless (always in the Top 50) that you’d really struggle to guess ones age or background and they have some great historical namesakes because they have always been so well used. It’s lucky that they are gradually decreasing in number every year now though - so your James or Thomas will probably be the only one in class. Thomas just about has the edge for me as it’s more international, but I do appreciate that James has more nickname choice.

Samuel and Joseph are also very nice and have many similar benefits - it’s just personal preference.

No to Freddie or Roman though - both very trendy in comparison (and I know so many toddler Freddies).

Samuel would be my pick, followed by Joseph, then James. Agree with pp's saying Roman seems a different style to your other picks.
