Reuben??

[Jojay]

What do you think? DH loves it. I'm not sure...........

[suwoo]

I loved it for DS but DH didn't. Its meaning is 'behold, a son', which I thought was wonderful for our much wanted boy.

[dizzydixies]

LOVE IT love it love it but 3 girls in it looks like am not going to get a shot of using it

[MrsThierryHenry]

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

(Guess what my DS is called...!)

[Lilyloo]

lovely

[cafebistro]

Love it! My DP didnt like it though...so I couldnt call it DS

[mamalovesmojitos]

look here.

[3andnomore]

love it!

[wotulookinat]

I like it. I suggested it for DS but DH didn't like it.

[eekamoose]

I just love this name. Would have given it to my gorgeous DS except our older DD (his sister) is Ruby.

Its a fine boys name. Really.

[Beauregard]

Nice enough but quite popular

[ollyop]

Love it. My Reuben is almost 16. It was more unusual when he was little, but recently I have heard of several more little Reubens being born.

[nickeldime]

I like it. It's popular, but not as common as Ruben, from the chart here:

And be prepared for women who have called their son Rueben to tell you that you spelt it wrong.

[3andnomore]

Twenty, why ould anyone spell it "Rueben"?

[JuneBugJen]

Know 2 Reubens... its a great name.

[biglips]

its one of my faves names but there is already a Reuben in my Dps family who is only 16 months old

[ShowOfHands]

I know 5 baby Reubens!

[tiggerlovestobounce]

I love it.

[BigBadMousey]

Like it - I don't know any young reubens at all.

[EmmyLou]

My BF's DS is Reuben and he's a large eyed, long lashed husky voiced cutie at nearly 5yo, so big YES from me.

[Grumpalina]

Love it. Love it. Love it.

Wanted it for DS2 but DP refused (ended up with Robin instead which doesn't seem to be a popular name at all???!!! Wanted to buy him a bauble for the Christmas tree on his 1st Christmas and they didn't have his name which seemed very bizarre??!!!)

[PookiePodgeandTubs]

I love it. Great name. My daughter aged six was almost a Reuben, I mean, obviously except for the fact ahtt she was a girl. Six/7 yrs ago when it was on my list people reacted as though I'd opened the bible and stuck in a pin. But now it's mainstream but not ubiquitous. Good choice imo.

[Lomond]

I love it, think it's a great name

Love it!!! DH says it's the name of a sandwich though. I hope the next one is a boy so I can convince dh to let us name him Reuben!!!!

Ds1 is Gabriel Isaac, I love biblical names.
