Like them both, but I think I prefer Fraser

Hathled · 03/07/2008 10:37

Liam. The Liams I've known have been really nice.

PeachyHidingInTheShed · 03/07/2008 10:38

Love Fraser but Liam fine

I love Fraser but not keen on Liam, Liam Gallagher put me off.

Pinkglow · 03/07/2008 10:51

I like Liam but Fraser is quite a nice name too

Liam Fraser (surname) sounds quite good

Both are nice names. I think Fraser sounds lovely with Lauren and Owen.

So that they all have a different initial, I would put William on the birth cert and use Liam.

Fraser is ok, but that seems to add to the styles. Lauren - modern classic, Owen - GB Celtic, Fraser - US Preppy style.

William with Liam for short is classic with a celtic interpretation.

I think Fraser sounds best with the other two names.
Am also a little biased as I have a very gorgeous nephew named Fraser

izzybiz · 03/07/2008 11:25

Fraser is a scottish name.

pointydog · 03/07/2008 11:52

I prefer the name Liam but don;t like names beginning with the same letter so I'd go for Fraser.

LuLuBai · 03/07/2008 12:26

Definitely Fraser

justageek · 03/07/2008 12:28

fraser is a scottish name, i should know, its my maiden name! :D (biased)

DS was going to be Fraser! But sad to say I was put off it by family "you can't call him Frasier" (as in US sitcom pronounciation) and then a friend was talking about a child she knew called Fraser who she didn't like.

And having been talking about this again this weekend with friends, one friend still thought it was the same at the sitcom - so be warned!

I do like Liam. Liam Fraser sounds nice.

Really like both names.. they're really popular where I live... I am due in December and am thinking Noah or Owen for a boy... any comments could do with some help!!!

greenelizabeth · 03/07/2008 15:03

I know it's Scottish, but its usage as a random first name with no family connection is American in style! Comprende?

JodieG1 · 03/07/2008 15:07

Really don't like Fraser.

FranSanDisco · 03/07/2008 15:09

I like both but Liam is really popular. I'd go for Fraser.

FranSanDisco · 03/07/2008 15:10

I love Noah.

seb1 · 03/07/2008 15:28

Love Fraser was on shortlist for Ds but DH said no.
Not keen on Liam - makes me think of a little scallywag.

chandellina · 03/07/2008 20:08

Liam

lollyheart · 04/07/2008 19:12
