Friend's son needs name... your vote counts

[bakedpotato]

he's six days old and they really can't decide what to call him. i said i'd call back later today with results from the MN jury.

Ben
Isaac
Sam
Max
Evan
Sean

There's a bit of a Welsh connection...
let's say the surname is Chapters (it's not, but that's closeish)

Evan

1. London

2. Ice 3. Beefy

None of these I would choose but heard them all on several recent trips into town and had to stop myself from giggling.

isaac or evan.

Sam, Isaac or Ben - don't like the others.

Wonder if nasa knows one of the Evans I know - lives nearby.

Far too many Sams and Bens around. There are 3 3yo Sams in my street alone.

I suppose I'd choose Evan if I had to pick from that list.

I'd choose Sam (would have been dd's name if she'd been a boy) - it is quite popular now though so if they want something more unusual I'd go with Evan

Isaac

I vote for Isaac - but then it's my ds name and he's a real peach. Sometimes we call him Isy (eyesie) or Baby I for ahort but not Zac yet.

for short I mean

Ben or Sam are my favourites and were on my boys name list. I find Sean tricky as I know so many of them, as in men called Sean inc one very letchy irritating client, so although i like the name i couldn 't call my son sean.

They're all nive though.

How about Benjamin samuel Chapters
or
Samuel Benjamin chapters?!

1. Isaac

2. Sam 3. Evan

NOT Max or Ben

How about choosing a name that's currently out of fashion and starting a new trend? I remember the horrified looks my dh's cousin got when she named her sons Jack and Harry back in the mid-70s, when everyone else was keen on such names as Jason, Darren, Kevin and Dean, yet Jack & Harry are among the most popular names now. I've had a similar experience with my own children's names too. Out-of-vogue but rather nice names that spring to mind are: Eric, Denis, Gerald, Alan, Arthur, Roland, Frank & Amos.

ben or Sean, i think they sound nice with the surname

Ben - Where I live every boy child born this year has been called either Ben or Thomas.
Isaac - Not sure about the 'c' ending and begiing or first/surname.
Sam - I like Sam!
Max - NMS.
Evan - NMS.
Sean - NMS

What about a ncie solid Welsh name like Ioan?

or emyr?

Isaac, Ben, Sam, in that order

I love the name Eric. And Alan.

DS is Max which is a person's name and NOT a dog's name, thank you.

Ben or Sam would be my choice.
