[name]William[/name] [name]Dexter[/name] by far. [name]William[/name] [name]Benjamin[/name] is boring in comparison (not to mention excessively long, especially if you have a long surname as well).

[name]William[/name] [name]Benjamin[/name] is lovely! [name]Even[/name] though [name]Dexter[/name] is more interesting alone, for some reason [name]William[/name] [name]Benjamin[/name] has more personality to me, and I don’t think it’s too long at all. It also reminds me of my favorite [name]William[/name] combo ever, [name]William[/name] [name]Gabriel[/name]. It just has a similar feel to me, so [name]William[/name] [name]Benjamin[/name] made me smile. :slight_smile:

Good luck!

I voted for [name]William[/name] [name]Dexter[/name]. I think [name]Dexter[/name] helps give [name]William[/name] a bit of pizzazz. [name]Love[/name] it! You really can’t go wrong with either name, though.

I am not a fan of [name]Dexter[/name] at all. It seems so cartoonish and not like a real name with substance. [name]Benjamin[/name] is lovely though. [name]William[/name] [name]Benjamin[/name] sounds wonderful! I agree with @ashthedreamer that is has a lot more personality. I cannot picture someone with this name to be anything but sweet and charming :slight_smile:

Thanks for the votes and responses! I keep going back and forth, myself. I appreciate the input!

I voted for [name]Benjamin[/name] because I don’t like [name]Dexter[/name] but the [name]Dexter[/name] combo has better flow, but if you had [name]William[/name] [name]Benedict[/name] it would fit beautifully.

I choose [name]Dexter[/name] because I like the idea of a classic name like [name]William[/name] with a kind of a spunkier mn.
