rate or slate - boys names list

[thelollipoplady]

Surname has three syllables - with lots of S and L sounds so restricts my choices a bit (nothing ending with S or X)

So far we have...

Elijah
George
Isaac
Jack
Levi
Henry
Hugo

Which do you rate - and which do you hate...?

adore Hugo
love George
Henry is nice
love Jack

meh Isaac/Levi and Elijah

what about Jonah or Saul - they seem similar to your taste

Hugo

George is the only one I like out of that list and I only like it a little bit

Elijah ok
George dislike
Isaac like
Jack ok
Levi dislike
Henry ok
Hugo really dislike

They are all lovely names. Have faith in your son to make whatever name you give him beautiful.

Love, love , love Hugo (wanted it for ds2 but wasn't allowed)

Don't like George, Isaac, Elijah, Henry.

Quite like Levi.

Ambivalent towards Jack!!

only like the old testament ones

think elijah maybe bit of a mouthful with 3 syllable surname? Also..bit hobbity...?
issac has s sound...will it be too much with the ss's in surname too?

quite like george, hugo, jack and henry. Not my sort of names iykwim, but ok.

Levi...nope.

levi or eli

Thanks all of you - good points tigana. No clear favourites emerging yet though, you're all pretty split. Bit like us really. DH likes the old testament ones, I like the rest. Jack is just in there - cos it goes and it's easy. Yes those other OT ones are nice dizzy - like Jonah better out of the two, but I don't love them iykwim.

Keep going - be as cutting as you can and perhaps we can whittle these down!

I like Isaac (DS has a similar name) and Henry. But then I've got a bit of a Tudor obsession so that may influence it!

Elijah- love love love
George- hate hate hate
Isaac- s'OK
Jack- yawn
Levi- bit out there....I can see Boden wearers using it, but can also hear it being shrieked in Asda (and pronounced wrong)
Henry- bit boringly posh
Hugo- too posh. He'll be forced to wear a Barber jacket.

George, Jack and Henry-hate the rest-particularly Elijah and Levi.

rate -nice name I like it
slate-bit dull I'm afraid

Isaac is the only one i like.

Elijah - Love
George - Love
Isaac - ok
Jack - I hate it!!! So blooming common round here
Levi - LOVE IT!!!!!! My fave
Henry - nice
Hugo - ok

Love Hugo and Elijah.

Isaac and Levi OK, nothing special.

George, Jack, Henry dull dull dull.

How about Noah or Jake?

I LOVE them all, apart from Jack (too common, unimaginative and is just a nickname anyway) and Hugo (laughably posh).

Love the names Henry and George.

I like Issac, Jack and Levi

I really don't like Hugo and not keen on Elijah.

not keen on hugo- bit poncey

all others ok

LOVE henry!!!

Elijah - yes
George yes
Isaac yes
Jack nope
Levi yes
Henry yes
Hugo yes

Elijah - Prefer Eli,
George - Popular
Isaac - Likeable
Jack - Dull
Levi - Cheap
Henry - Adorable
Hugo - Affected

Elijah - my half brothers name, I love it (love Eli for short also)
George - Asda, shop there too much so no
Isaac - Love it
Jack - and the Beanstalk, too dull for me
Levi - my DP's name, so a bit biased (contemplating having a Levi Jnr if we ever have a boy)
Henry - the 8th, too old fashioned
Hugo - too posh for me, makes me think of Hugo Boss as well.

Elijah - Nope.
George - Like.
Isaac - Like.
Jack - Nope.
Levi - Nope.
Henry - Nope.
Hugo - Like.

LOL at ggirl.

I read the title and thought they were odd names for a child.
