Oscar - ok. It was very fashionable ten years ago so it might be on the wane now and beginning to sound a bit dated soon. Jmo
Harry - not a fan
George - really like this one
Zachary - love it, and I love Zack too
Stanley - no, it's a family name but I still think it's a bit goofy-sounding
Peter- love it.
Matthias - Like it. Also like Tobias
Callum - I like it. But it's an updated version of Colin to me, so it is nice but it doesn't set me alight iykwim

What do you think of Patrick Saul? sounds like it could be on your list and matches your style.

Peter-fabulous. Classic and underused.

Matthias-I like this too, but would presume you were partly foreign (not sure where from though).

Harry (if short for Henry)

Harry - like
George - like
Zachary - like my favourite
Stanley - not keen
Peter - OK
Matthias - not unless you are foreign
Callum - too popular here right now I know about 12

Oscar- I know too many of them.
Harry- see above
George- I like it. Classic and masculine.
Zachary- A bit surfer dude for me...
Stanley- Gorgeous.
Peter- Lovely.
Matthias- Really nice, quite arty.
Callum - A bit dull.

LOVE Stanley!

CantSleepWontSleep · 31/03/2010 22:58

Zachary.
Not keen on much else from your list myself.

EightiesChick · 31/03/2010 23:06

Harry, George or Peter.

Harry, George and Matthias are all very nice. I don't agree with the "only from overseas" verdict since it is the name of the disciple who replaced Judas in the New Testament and is therefore fair game for anybody I reckon.

LIKE
Oscar but it has now jumped the shark into try-hard...
George
Zachary
Stanley - though veering into Oscar territory
Peter - LOVE this name - due a comeback
Matthias - one of the coolest guys I've known is called this (German)

DISLIKE
Callum - I don't know why...it's the way it makes your mouth sound on the second syllable...a bit glum, a bit um
Harry - only as a NN for Henry or Harrison

Peter - definitely...

brimfull · 01/04/2010 21:31

Peter and George are nice

janeite · 01/04/2010 21:37

Matthias is lovely. I like Oscar and Peter too.
