I voted for [name]Elijah[/name] nn [name]Eli[/name]. While it’s running rampant in my state currently (no joke, I have met 20 Alijahs/Elijahs/[name]Elis[/name] in the past two years), it has a quirky, classic, Biblical appeal, and right now I can completely see why everyone loves it so much! I prefer other -ah boys’ names ([name]Josiah[/name], [name]Isaiah[/name], [name]Noah[/name], [name]Micah[/name], [name]Jonah[/name], etc.), but I like [name]Elijah[/name] a lot–I always have. I was initially going to vote for [name]Bryant[/name] as I’ve always loved it and it seems to be less mainstream than [name]Elijah[/name], but [name]Elijah[/name] just appealed to me more here. I think [name]Elijah[/name] [name]Bryant[/name] or [name]Bryant[/name] [name]Elijah[/name] would be a lovely combo.
I voted for [name]Bryant[/name]. It is my husbands middle name : ) but not only that, [name]Bryant[/name] is a strong boy name, and there isnt really any nicknames for it, or any way for it to get made fun of. [name]Elijah[/name] is cute too, that would be my second choice. [name]Jason[/name] is too common.
I voted [name]Elijah[/name] because it has a lovely flowing sound and it’s one of the only biblical names I actually like. I know a wonderful guy named [name]Skyler[/name] [name]Elijah[/name].
I think [name]Elijah[/name] [name]Robert[/name] would be nice.
My DH likes [name]Jason[/name], it wouldn’t make my list.
I like both [name]Elijah[/name] and [name]Bryant[/name]. [name]Eli[/name] is a cute, upbeat nickname. Everyone likes an [name]Eli[/name]!!
I voted for [name]Jason[/name] cause I love that name, although common. [name]Bryant[/name] is really cool too but I would be afraid it would get misprounced/spelled as [name]Bryan[/name] all the time and that the t would be forgotten.
[name]Elijah[/name] is what I voted for…I know, working in schools, that its definitely becoming more popular for sure. But what about [name]Elias[/name]…that’s a little more unique and you can still use [name]Eli[/name] as the nn…
I love [name]Elijah[/name] and [name]Jason[/name]!
[name]Jason[/name] is too common/dated, [name]Bryant[/name] too [name]Kobe[/name], and [name]Elijah[/name] is lovely, but common.
I knew a [name]Jason[/name] growing up and he was annoying, so I have that association. [name]Bryant[/name] is nice but not a favorite. My mom actually grew up on a street with that name so realizing that it’s something I may consider for a middle name… thanks for the idea! Haha. Anyways, I really like [name]Elijah[/name]. It is getting pretty popular but because it’s such a great name!
No to [name]Jason[/name]. Have you heard the rhyme, “Hasten [name]Jason[/name] bring the basin, ooops too late bring the mop!”
[name]Bryant[/name] will always be mistaken for [name]Bryan[/name] which is a shame as it is a nice name.
[name]Elijah[/name] is nms
I like [name]Elijah[/name] the best
