I don't think a name which is a bible name as well as an actual book from the bible and a Saint's name can really be considered Chavy. And my chav radar is out on stalks and brutally harsh and unforgiving.

ps., steffi just texted me. She regrets calling her son Jayden. She wishes she'd gone with Tim or Greg or Pete or Ivan like I suggested to her.

Oliver

Tidey · 08/02/2009 12:23

Another vote for Oliver.

chaya5738 · 08/02/2009 13:01

I like Oliver.

Jayden is AWFUL (for all the reason listed above)

RockinSockBunnies · 08/02/2009 13:08

I like Oliver too.

I think one of Britney Spears' sons is called Jayden - it's a bit 'trailer trashy' IMO.

Oliver

WynkenBlynkenandNod · 08/02/2009 13:12

Oliver

Marthasmama · 08/02/2009 13:12

Oliver - it's lovely, we have one! Plus it goes really well with Charlie. My ds loves his name.

Sidge · 08/02/2009 13:20

Oliver with Luke as a middle name. Goes really well with Charlie.

Jayden is just awful. Sorry.

Katonahottinroof · 08/02/2009 13:20

Oliver is lovely and would be on my list.

Luke is ok, nice enough but not my favourite

Have to agree with pps about Jayden - a bit rough but doesn't matter if you love it - it's not the kind of name that will cause him issues or anything.

FairLadyRandySlut · 08/02/2009 13:22

Hm, really like Oliver..., but prefer Lucas over Luke, sorry....and whilst I do like the sound of Jayden....it does sound more like a girlname....Kaden is nice though, and definitely a boys name

FairLadyRandySlut · 08/02/2009 13:24

oh, and I think the biblic version is Jadon, not Jayden

Wolfblass · 08/02/2009 13:52

Oliver

(i agree with headfairy about Jayden)

ilovesprouts · 08/02/2009 16:18

i like them all my its up to you at the end of the day

Rocky12 · 08/02/2009 16:52

Luke is good. Hate Jayden (I agree with others that it sounds chavvy - sorry!)

My son's (age 11) class is full of Oliver's

Frasersmum123 · 08/02/2009 17:01

Well I like Jayden, its a little common(as in popular), but so are alot of names.

diedandgonetodevon · 08/02/2009 17:01

Oliver- definitely
Luke- at a push (but Lucas/Luca nicer)
Jayden- just don't go there

Don't like Jayden at all.

Luke and Oliver are both nice, Oliver goes better with Charlie I think.

TrulyMadBadandDeeply · 08/02/2009 17:19

Luke is by far the nicest and goes well with Charlie. Oliver is a nice name but like David in the 1970s - bound to be at least 2 in every class at school.

lastboxoftampons · 08/02/2009 17:38

Luke, definitely.
I really don't like Oliver and I hate Ollie even more!
Don't really care for Jayden either - makes me think of Britney.

Bucharest · 08/02/2009 17:39

not Jayden.
