Marcus or Daniel for our baby: which do you prefer?

[ForDearJadeCat]

Hi everyone, my husband and I can't decide on a name for our baby. We're choosing between Marcus (Mark) and Daniel. Which name do you think is better?

All the boys named Marcus I know are very much Marcus not Mark. I prefer Daniel, personally.

Marcus has more weight

Daniel is lovely. We used to have a dog called Marcus so I think on him, but I like Mark as a name in itself.

I like Marcus. Daniel not so much though I quite like Dan. It's the Niel bit that puts me off as it reminds me of Neil.

I'd go with Marcus: good, strong, classical name.

I really like both. If it helps dd who is 7 has a Markus in her class but he's the only one we're come across. The youngest Daniel i know is 10.

I think i prefer Daniel though i'm a bit undecided on Danny

Marcus. Lovely strong name.

Are you naming a baby or a 39 year old bloke?!

Anyway, Daniel. Marcus is dreadful.

Daniel

Daniel is great, not keen on Marcus as I have bank accounts with them.

Voting has finished but I prefer Marcus! Unusual yet classic.
