[name_u]Asher[/name_u] - love it! 8/10
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m] - nms. 4/10
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] - sweet name. 6/10
[name_u]Grayson[/name_u] - kind of overused. 5/10

Asher - 7/10 means happiness so that’s beautiful but I’m less keen on the sound
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m] - 1/10 not keen on this one
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] - 8/10 I think this is a lovely name even with the unfortunate twilight association
[name_u]Grayson[/name_u] - 5/10 it’s ok but I’m not a fan of grey and this has become really popular

Asher - 3/10 I’ve never really liked this name. Maybe because my name is [name_u]Ashley[/name_u] and I know I’d never use it on a son
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m] - 7/10 I like this name and nn [name_u]Dash[/name_u]
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] - 7/10 I like this one too
[name_u]Grayson[/name_u] -8/10 my favorite from your list! [name_u]Love[/name_u] the nn [name_u]Gray[/name_u]

[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] - Cool and versatile, and the nickname [name_f]Em[/name_f] is cute!
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m] - Fun name, and it makes me think of [name_u]Christmas[/name_u] for some reason. I don’t like [name_u]Dash[/name_u] as a nickname though, so I wouldn’t use it
[name_u]Grayson[/name_u] - A bit overdone but I know many lovely Grays so I can’t not like it!
[name_u]Asher[/name_u] - As a full name it’s quite cool, but I just know too many people called [name_u]Ash[/name_u], and I feel like he’d get called that 80% of the time.

Asher-9/10 love this one! nn [name_u]Ash[/name_u] is so sweet and it sounds so masculine but sweet!
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m]-6/10 I’m not too partial on this one though I do like nn [name_u]Dash[/name_u]
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u]-7/10 I think this one is also soft but masculine
[name_u]Grayson[/name_u]-9/10 I really love this one. I know people see this as a bit trendy but I think that since it’s a surname it has some weight to it!

Asher -7
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m]-8
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u]-8
[name_u]Grayson[/name_u]-5

Asher: 9 / 10 [name_f]My[/name_f] only qualm with [name_u]Asher[/name_u] is that it’s too popular. I’m considering the Yiddish form [name_m]Anshel[/name_m] as a middle name.
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m]: 8/10 I like it a lot! It’s sweet and strong at the same time. It might have a little twinge of arrogance in it, just because it feels very upper-crusty, but that’s just my perception. The name is beautiful.
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u]: 9/10 it’s another favorite of mine that gets points deducted for trending so hard around here. I know 3 little Emmetts at my children’s school. It might not be a general rise in popularity though, perhaps it’s still rare elsewhere.
[name_u]Grayson[/name_u]: 7/10 I don’t love it, it’s a little too preppy for my liking, but it’s sweet and formal sounding.

Asher- 9/10, I’m only personally concerned about the recent popularity
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m]- 8/10, love the Pixar connection
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u]- 7/10, nice name there are just others I like more
[name_u]Grayson[/name_u]- 2/10, I personally much prefer [name_u]Greyson[/name_u] because of the aesthetics of gray vs grey for me

Asher–10/10; beautiful sound and vibe.
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m]–9/10; great sound, cool nickname.
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u]–4/10; just sounds weak to me.
[name_u]Grayson[/name_u]—5/10; it’s okay. [name_f]My[/name_f] son named his dog this and now I associate the name with a large Great [name_u]Dane[/name_u], lol.

Hi there.

Here is my favorite to least favorite-

Dashiell-This is so handsome. It’s smart, sleek, unique & has the super fun spunky nn of [name_u]Dash[/name_u].

Asher-I like this a lot too. I really like that ‘ash’ sound in names. [name_u]Ash[/name_u] is a very cool nn. [name_u]Asher[/name_u] is nice, because it can sound sophisticated, but also rugged & outdoorsy. Then at the same time it seems gentle & kind. It’s a little bit popular, but not too over done.

Emmett-I like the idea of this more than I like the sound of it. It’s sporty & kind of quirky. [name_m]Just[/name_m] something about saying it sounds abrupt.

Grayson-This is not my cup of tea. [name_m]Just[/name_m] really trendy & uninteresting.

Hope this helps. :slight_smile:

Asher 9/10 - loved this name ever since I read it in The Giver. It also means happy.
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m] 2/10 - Eh. (Brownie points for it being [name_u]Dash[/name_u]’s name from The Incredibles?)
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] 4/10 - It’s… fine.
[name_u]Grayson[/name_u] 2/10 - I had so many friends name their babies [name_u]Grayson[/name_u] last year… [name_m]Just[/name_m] not my style. Also prefer the [name_u]Greyson[/name_u] spelling.

Asher 5/10
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m] 3/10
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] 4/10
[name_u]Grayson[/name_u] 6/10

Love [name_u]Grayson[/name_u] and [name_u]Asher[/name_u] best
