They are all really nice - very classic and all can be shortened to something that sounds good for a teen/ grown man i.e Dan, Will, Joe. I like Joseph most but all are nice.0
-
I really like Oliver/Ollie the best, quite popular these days.I'm not a "SINGLE" mum, I'm a "DOUBLE" mum!:D0

Joshua, I have always loved that name.٩(•̮̮̃•̃)۶ ٩(-̮̮̃-̃)۶ ٩(●̮̮̃•̃)۶ ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ ٩(-̮̮̃•̃)۶ :EasterBun0

If you think you'd shorten it to Ben, why not Benedict instead of Benjamin?0
-
I am split my DS is Oliver and my DD was going to be Benedict if she was a boy!0

I voted William which is my son's middle name.Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud.0

I think they are all nice. Oliver was the most popular boys' name in England & Wales last year, if that bothers you?...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0

Daniel, by a mile!!
I like Joseph too, just not as much as Daniel. Oliver and Joshua are a bit too popular for my liking, I know loads of both, and I detest Ollie as a short form for Oliver. In fairness though, it's a list of nice, classic, not in any way chavtasic, names. Realistically you'd do well to pick any of them. Imo.
JxxAnd it looks like we made it once again
Yes it looks like we made it to the end0 -
I voted Daniel too. My least favourite would be William because I would go MAD if anyone called him Willie and someone's bound to at some point. I've already got a Ben so I suppose that's really my first choice."A savoury muffin?? As if life wasn't disappointing enough!" Miranda0

I voted Joseph - it's on my shortlist. But I also like Oliver and Benjamin xxThank you to everyone for sharing competitions!0
