Oh please let it be Joseph!

LoudPlumDog · 13/12/2025 13:26

I love them all!

Sebastian is my number one!

Lemonlimonade · 13/12/2025 13:39

Not Sebastian - sounds like sebaceous (oily) and bastard.

Cameron is a lovely name!

MovedlikeHarlowinMonteCarlo · 13/12/2025 13:41

Cameron.

namestealer · 13/12/2025 13:58

All are nice - my order of preference is:
Joseph (one of my all time favourite people is a Joseph)
Sebastian (ironically the only Sebastian I know is definitely not one of my favourite people but I do like the name)
Cameron (I don't know any)

DuchessOfNarcissex · 13/12/2025 14:41

Which goes best with the surname? Which of Seb, Cam and Joe do you prefer?

BoleynMemories13 · 13/12/2025 16:12

Congratulations!

Joseph is by far my favourite 👍🏼

ScruffMuffin · 13/12/2025 17:04

Joseph!

DreadingWinter · 13/12/2025 17:20

I love Cameron. The others are boring.

DuchessOfNarcissex · 13/12/2025 17:27

Cameron was very popular in Scotland about 25 years ago.
All the ones I know are Cam.
The name makes me think of the person who gave us the referendum.

theunbreakablecleopatrajones · 13/12/2025 19:26

December? Gotta be Joseph

Sebastian is quite nice but lots about at the moment

I'm not wild about Cameron unless you are Scottish. And it's a family name.

Outside9 · 13/12/2025 19:34

Cameron is as bland as white bread.

Everyone knows like ten Joe's.

I vote Sebastian.

IndigoIsMyFavouriteColour · 13/12/2025 19:57

Sebastian is the winner here

DuchessOfNarcissex · 14/12/2025 11:12

I only know one Joe. I know many Jos (Joanne, Jo-Anne, Joanna and a Josephine).

TalulahJP · 14/12/2025 12:26

whats mum and dads initials? you may want them the same as baby’s or different. Or give a nod to grandparents initials even if you don’t want to make baby one of their names.

For a christmas baby though i think Joseph is the way to go!

I think there will be more baby Sebastians than Josephs at the moment, it's v popular. OP can check on dark greener

Mumofteenandtween · 14/12/2025 12:30

All lovely. I can’t choose either!

DuchessOfNarcissex · 14/12/2025 12:32

Sebastian
Cameron
Joseph

Not much in it but none are on an upward trend.

Breezeee · 14/12/2025 16:10

Thanks everyone, i hadnt even thought of the christmas connection😂.
