Jonathan

I like them both. Funnily I know 2 Jonathans both under 2 and 2 Henrys under 2 so one isn't more popular that the other here.

I have a Henry (aged 5) and it does seem to be increasingly popular (annoyong how you don't get a crystal ball when you name your kids, huh? ) I still love it, but if I were naming him today I might not choose it. He was one of three Henry's at preschool, but is the only one in his year at school.

I love Jonathan, and would def have it on my list were DS4 ever an option!

p.s. just seen your other thread re nn for Henry. We've never shortened it (unlike his two brothers whose names get shortened) but if we did we'd use 'Hal'.

Another biased vote for Jonathan

Jonathan - just more versatile in my head than Henry ....
