For some reason the site is letting me start new threads but not reply to any so I will be reading the replies but don't think I'm being rude if I don't reply!

Thanks in advance.

My favourites are Isaac,Isaiah,Jasper,Lucian,Maddox & Thor

Love Maddox.
Not keen on Thor.

Deff Isaac- was my choice if dc3 was going to be a boy (but is a girl).

I really wanted to use Ike as nn....

Arron -- I love Arran (like the island) but dislike Aaron
Ezra -- love, spelled with Z
Isaac -- love
Isaiah -- love
Jasper -- ok, maybe more of a pet's name
Lachlan -- love, spelled like this
Lucian -- like a lot
Maddox -- Brangelina spoiled this one
Nico -- love
Thor -- not too bad
Zeke -- Ezekiel yes, Zeke no (Zeke nice as nn)

Really nice names. I love your list.

Arron- still dp's fav - dislike
Esra/Ezra - nope
Isaac - very nice
Isaiah - quite nice
Jasper - favourite
Lachlan/Lauchlin - nope
Lucian - nice
Maddox - dreadful
Nico - ok if italian / greek
Thor - nope
Zeke - awful

OK...... so I am two glasses of wine in and I apologise if my opinions are strong!

Arron- looks spelt wrong to me

Esra/Ezra - this is not a name I ever thought about! Wow, but it is that wonderful combo of unusual but not made up and easy to say/spell. That is kind of cool. And Ezra Jack Keats is maybe THE most beautiful children's author ever - has there ever been a nicer book than "The Snowy Day" ever?

Isaac - fine, not my fave
Isaiah - fine, not my fave
Jasper - doesn't do it for me

Lachlan/Lauchlin - I think this name gets you into the whole are you or are you not Scottish and do you do big gutteral noises on the "ch" bit dilemma

Lucian - not for me, seems a little pretentious

Maddox - I don't know why, but to me this sounds like a cleaning product

Nico - no, unless a nickname for Nicholas and even then I am dubious
Thor-asked about this before and not many good responses.

Zeke - no, unless short for something?

Arron- no
Esra/Ezra - no (seems a bit feminine, due to "a" ending, though I know it's not)
Isaac - like, v biblical
Isaiah - lovely, but again, very strong biblical connotations
Jasper - love love love. like Jasper Johns, the pop artist.
Lachlan/Lauchlin - cool. prefer Lachlan.
Lucian - no
Maddox - ok
Nico - no
Thor - I think it's unusual and cool
Zeke - yep, like! but only as a nn

Hi, my sons called Isaiah pronounced the same as yours but people always pronounce it incorrectly. I regret not spelling it how your sister has with the Z but am I just getting myself worked up over nothing? I feel like he’s got a lifetime of correcting people but my partner says it’ll be a good conversation starter.

Arron- still dp's fav - spell it Aaron
Esra/Ezra - don't like it, and why misspell an oveerused name
Isaac - fine
Isaiah - too long, too religious and too vowelly
Jasper - fine
Lachlan/Lauchlin - Lachlan is ok but the Lacklun pronunciation would put me off. I don't understand the Lauchlin spelling.
Lucian - Lucy Anne
Maddox - not keen
Nico - short for Nicodemus or Nicholas, otherwise a bit unisex.
Thor- would you say it Tor or Thor? Quite a name to live up to.
Zeke - no

I think Aaron, Lucian, Isaac & Jasper are the nicest. I don’t like Maddox, Thor & Zeke as much.
