Big brother is [name_m]Nathan[/name_m] - which name do you like better for our second little boy? [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] or [name_m]Jacob[/name_m]?

I vote [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]

I prefer [name_m]Oliver[/name_m], but both go well with [name_m]Nathan[/name_m].

I like [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] more. [name_m]Jacob[/name_m] is a nice name, just feels a little dated to me. I also like that [name_m]Nathan[/name_m] and [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] are more distinct in sound.

I slightly prefer [name_m]Oliver[/name_m], but you can’t go wrong either way

I like [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]. Would be in our list but can’t use it.

I think I slightly prefer [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] too, but both are lovely, traditional choices which go well with [name_m]Nathan[/name_m].

Both are nice names, but I love [name_m]Jacob[/name_m]. I think of it as more classic while [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] is more trendy (which means it’s more likely to sound “so 2010s” in a few years). I also think [name_m]Jacob[/name_m] better matches the strong, handsome feel of [name_m]Nathan[/name_m] - [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] is a little more cutesy.

I like [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]

southern.maple · February 20, 2016, 12:28pm

I like [name_m]Jacob[/name_m] better. I think it fits better with [name_m]Nathan[/name_m], as well

Hailwidis · February 20, 2016, 1:16pm

[name_m]Nathan[/name_m] and [name_m]Oliver[/name_m].

I personally prefer [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] but slightly prefer [name_m]Jacob[/name_m] with [name_m]Nathan[/name_m].

boyandgirl · February 20, 2016, 5:47pm

[name_m]Oliver[/name_m]. I never liked [name_m]Jacob[/name_m].

kahope · February 20, 2016, 5:59pm

Both are a nice names and compliment [name_m]Nathan[/name_m]. I’m going with [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] just because it is less popular and it kind of pops out more.

JemimaK · February 20, 2016, 11:42pm

I prefer [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] but agree with previous posters that both names go well with [name_m]Nathan[/name_m]

w12 · February 21, 2016, 10:09am

I like [name_m]Oliver[/name_m].

chloe14 · February 21, 2016, 10:54am

I prefer [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]. But [name_m]Jacob[/name_m] is still a nice name.

Amy1512 · February 21, 2016, 11:41am

I prefer [name_m]Jacob[/name_m]. And its not as common. I feel like ever second or third kid I see is called [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] these days.
