Go with Sebastian, it's a lovely name (although I am biased as I have a Sebastian Alexander)known to his friends as Seb and his little sister as Sebby. He's definately not a toff, more of a "dude" amongst his friends. I was inspired by Seb Coe and Sebastian Conran. No regrets on the name choice (other than someone I know well CHOSE the same name 2 months later and they now attend the same pre-school Angry. The only problem I find is that some adults have massive problems, no idea why, in saying Seb and he quite often gets called Zeb, even when they try to pronounce Seb they can't!!

Don't like Sebastian - very public school boy/Tory for me (knew quite a few of them at when I was at school). Like Edward Sebastian though. Prefer Christopher to Owen. Oh and Oliver is nice! Good luck with your choice - it's difficult isn't it!
