Akiba
Elijah
Ezra
Micah
Boaz
Dov (like he dove into the pool)
Noah

I'm so appreciative ladies


These are mostly deceased family names by the way :)
 
I absolutely love Cale (as a name) but my husband won't go for it. :\

That's my favorite though, I also like Jacob and Noah. Those would be my top 3 :)

Thank you!!

I do like Asher, it is a Jewish name, but more communities are using it so it seems Donnie is a family name.
 
Looks like a Jewish family, hmm? :thumbup:

I like Asher, Jacob, Leon, Elijah, Micah, Boaz, Noah, Judah, Avram/Avi. My favorites are Asher and Elijah.

I like Dov, Shay, and Ori as Hebrew names but I don't think they work as well in English.
 
Benjamin - love it
Asher - not a huge fan but don't dislike
Sol - not for me
George - lovely but might be popular due to new Royal baby
Jacob - really like this one
Leon - not a fan...quite harsh sounding name. I like Leo though.
Akiba - don't like
Elijah - quite like it, but seems very popular at the mo
Ezra - I like this one
Micah - like this too
Boaz - not a fan
Dov (like he dove into the pool) - not a fan
Noah - really like
Isaiah (nn shay) - Love Isaiah, don't like Shay
Judah - bit too much like Judas?!
Ori - quite different but quite like
Donald (nn Donnie) - LOVE.
Caleb (NN Cale, like kale vegetable) - quite nice

Here you go - hope you don't mind but I'be been quite honest!
 
Benjamin - 5/10... classic name
Asher - 6/10... modern feeling but not crazy/trendy
Sol - 2/10... sound old to me
George - 5/10... classic but about to be very popular
Jacob - 9/10... love it but im bias (although I prefer just Jake)
Leon - 3/10... make me think 'sex is on fire'
Akiba - 0/10... never heard before, dont even know how to say it
Elijah - 2/10... getting very popular
Ezra - 3/10... some people mistake this for feminine for some reason
Micah - 3/10... seems to be rising in popularity
Boaz - 1/10... dont fully know how to pronounce this
Dov - 4/10... my ex was Dav, prefer it with the 'a' sound
Noah - 2/10... massively common/popular now
Isaiah - 4/10... dont like the nickname though
Judah - 7/10... quite like this
Ori - 3/10... sounds feminine -ish to me
Donald - 5/10... classic name
Caleb - 4/10... like the nickname but not keen on full name

the problem with most is they are very popular or hard to pronounce

Jacob Judah is by far the best imho

Donald Asher or Asher George are good as well
 
Benjamin - 10/10 Love it! Lots of nn options too
Asher - 8/10 I like Ash as a nn here
Sol - 4/10 Not keen, not sure why
George - 10/10 Love it! Strong and traditional
Jacob - 10/10 Love it! Another strong name. Nice biblical connections if that's your thing
Leon - 6/10 Ok but personally I know a few too many Leons
Akiba - 7/10 More unique than others but I would be unsure how to pronounce
Elijah - 10/10 Love it! Nice biblical connections here too.
Ezra - 5/10 I know it isn't, but this always strikes me as more feminine sounding
Micah - 10/10 Love it! Traditional without being over-popular
Boaz - 2/10 Really not keen. I don't know why but this seems to be a name that could invite teasing
Dov (like he dove into the pool) - 5/10 Again, nice and unique but I pronounced it wrong!
Noah - 10/10 Love it! Lovely, biblical connections but becoming quite popular. Would that bother you?
Isaiah (nn shay) - 9/10 Love the name, not sure on the nn personally
Judah - 4/10 Makes me think Judas! Sorry :nope:
Ori - 6/10 Again, I know it's unisex but it always has a more feminine sound for me
Donald (nn Donnie) - 2/10 Not for me. I think Macdonalds! (sorry again!)
Caleb (NN Cale, like kale vegetable) - 7/10 Not bad. I prefer full name of Caleb to Cale though

Elijah and Micah would be my favourites I think.
