He's here, Ethan James or Elijah James?

Our beautiful baby boy arrived and we still haven’t chosen a name? Daddy still love [name_m]Ethan[/name_m], said no to all but [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] which is really growing on me? We’d call him [name_m]Eli[/name_m]? [name_m]Eli[/name_m] is close to [name_f]Eliana[/name_f] but I think I’m OK with out since they sound different, thoughts?

Please help us choose

[name_m]Ethan[/name_m] or [name_m]Eli[/name_m]?

[name_m]Ethan[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]. I prefer [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] over [name_m]Elijah[/name_m], but especially because [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] is just too similar to [name_f]Eliana[/name_f].

[name_m]Ethan[/name_m] - as pp says, [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] (which I prefer) is too close to [name_f]Eliana[/name_f] (which I really love).
Congratulations btw.

I would go with [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] - I’ve always loved it as a boy’s name, and EJ would make a really awesome nickname if you weren’t completely sold.

Another vote for [name_m]Ethan[/name_m].

I much prefer [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]… but because your daughter is [name_f]Eliana[/name_f] I’d go with [name_m]Ethan[/name_m].

I think [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] is very handsome.

I like [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] much better!

Thank you, we’ve chosen [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]

Thank you, we’ve chosen [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]

My thoughts exactly.

[name_m]Ethan[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] is my favorite. Congratulations :slight_smile:

I know of sibs of [name_u]Noah[/name_u] & [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] and 2 sets of sibs [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] and [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] so to me I think [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] is the perfect fit. [name_m]Eli[/name_m] is nice too, though it would personally feel too close to [name_f]Eliana[/name_f] for me. Congrats on your bundle and good luck with finding the name you love.

I prefer [name_m]Elijah[/name_m], but I think it’s too close to [name_f]Eliana[/name_f].
