DS2 due any day and we still can’t decide! Which is your favourite? (DS1 is Zachary, nn Zach).
Reasons also welcome :)
Thanks!

Can’t see a shortlist 👀

I like them all! Lovely list.

I'd wait until he's born and then see what he looks like/responds best to!

(If forced to choose I'd go for Sebastian...Zach and Seb are very cool).

Oh I voted before I read your full post!

I voted for Casper because I like it best.

But having read that your other son’s name is Zachary, I actually think Jacob is a better match. I know some people don’t care about matchy names but I’m assuming you do, or you wouldn’t have mentioned what the other child’s name is!

Definately not Casper (with the ghost connections and just my personal thoughts!) but all the others are lovely

I love the name Jacob. I’m not a huge fan of the others but there’s nothing wrong with them, just personal preference.

Same for me, I just don’t get how Casper has become popular. Love Sebastian especially, with Jacob a close second.

Jacob, shortened to Jake followed by Sebastian
