Really lovely names - all of them! My kind of names!

My favourites are probably Noah, Joseph and Jonathan. Think about the shortened versions too as no doubt they will end up sometimes being Joe, Jon, Nate/Nathan etc.

What about Benjamin?

Noah - nice
Elliot - nice it was what DS would have been called if we hadn't already have had a Harriet
Joseph - too many of them about
Elijah - nice and Eli is a nice nickname
Jonathan - Nooooooo
Nathaniel - Reminds me of that dappy FIona woman who presented GMTV although Nat is a nice nickname.

I have an Elijah David! We call him Eli, I tried to call him Elijah the other day and he said no (thats 7 year olds for you!)
I also like Jonathan and Nathaniel.
I find Noah really overused and boring, I really do not like it any more.
Elliot is nice, Joseph is ok too.
