I am looking for opinions on names for our 4th son. We have it narrowed down to three.

[name\_m]Rafferty[/name\_m] [name\_m]Thomas[/name\_m]  
[name\_u]Sullivan[/name\_u] [name\_m]Thomas[/name\_m]  
[name\_m]Dempsey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Thomas[/name\_m]

All three sound good with our current children’s names. Which do you like best?

They’re all great choices, I prefer [name\_m]Rafferty[/name\_m].

I [name\_u]LOVE[/name\_u] [name\_u]Sullivan[/name\_u]! I feel like [name\_u]Sullivan[/name\_u] is classic, masculine, and comes with “[name\_u]Sully[/name\_u]” as a great nickname! I also think [name\_u]Sullivan[/name\_u] [name\_m]Thomas[/name\_m] has a great flow to it.

I like both [name\_u]Sullivan[/name\_u] [name\_m]Thomas[/name\_m] and [name\_m]Rafferty[/name\_m] [name\_m]Thomas[/name\_m]. Both have great flow and great nickname potential. I would [name\_m]Dempsey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Thomas[/name\_m] because the flow is awkward, there’s no good nicknames, and it sounds more like a last name than a surname-y first name.

[name\_m]Rafferty[/name\_m] is my favourite! [name\_u]Sullivan[/name\_u] would be second choice.

I would avoid [name\_m]Dempsey[/name\_m]…it reminds me of a dumpster.

</div>

I like [name\_m]Rafferty[/name\_m] and [name\_u]Sullivan[/name\_u]. [name\_m]Dempsey[/name\_m] reminds me of the actor and has no easy nicknames (though I now cannot unsee “dumpster”).

My favourite is [name\_m]Rafferty[/name\_m], although I really like [name\_u]Sullivan[/name\_u] as well. Great choices, I’d love to know your other boys’ names!

[name\_m]Rafferty[/name\_m] then [name\_u]Sullivan[/name\_u]. [name\_m]Dempsey[/name\_m] may be made fun of as in Dumpster.
