Hello!
Please comment on these boys names - don’t be afraid to be blunt! 
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] (nn [name_u]Theo[/name_u] or [name_u]Teddy[/name_u])
[name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m] (nn [name_m]Tad[/name_m])
[name_m]Leopold[/name_m] (nn [name_m]Leo[/name_m])
[name_m]Leander[/name_m]
[name_m]Atticus[/name_m] (worried it’s getting a bit popular)
[name_m]Etienne[/name_m]
bumping.
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] (nn [name_u]Theo[/name_u] or [name_u]Teddy[/name_u]) - absolutely adore this. It’s classy and elegant, but cute and fun at the same time. Perfect!
[name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m] (nn [name_m]Tad[/name_m]) - I really like [name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m], but for some reason I’m not sold on [name_m]Tad[/name_m]. Not sure why, sorry!
[name_m]Leopold[/name_m] (nn [name_m]Leo[/name_m]) - love [name_m]Leo[/name_m], like [name_m]Leopold[/name_m].
[name_m]Leander[/name_m] - love [name_m]Leander[/name_m]! I love [name_m]Lysander[/name_m] a tiny bit more though 
[name_m]Atticus[/name_m] - I really like it, in a “I want someone else to use it” sort of way.
[name_m]Etienne[/name_m] - I love [name_f]Etta[/name_f] for a girl, so for some reason I can’t really see [name_m]Etienne[/name_m] on a boy. Sorry, that’s not very helpful!
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] (nn [name_u]Theo[/name_u] or [name_u]Teddy[/name_u])- I prefer [name_u]Theo[/name_u] on it’s own (although a lot of people love [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] I find it too fru-fru)
[name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m] (nn [name_m]Tad[/name_m])- nice strong name but I find it a bit hard to pronounce
[name_m]Leopold[/name_m] (nn [name_m]Leo[/name_m])- again, just prefer [name_m]Leo[/name_m] but I like [name_m]Leopold[/name_m] better than [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]
[name_m]Leander[/name_m]- love it, my favorite on the list
[name_m]Atticus[/name_m]- handsome but I don’t like that there is no real nn option and I would want one for a name like this
[name_m]Etienne[/name_m]- exotic sound but I find it reads feminine to my eye even though I know its a boys name
I love [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] and [name_m]Leopold[/name_m]. They are such classic names. [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] is another great name but rapidly gaining in popularity.
I love them all but [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] seems a little boring compared to the rest
Thanks for the opinions all…
Interested in people’s responses to [name_m]Leander[/name_m], which was way more positive than I thought it would be.
Why do you like it (i.e. is it just the mythology/[name_m]Shakespeare[/name_m] reference, or do you also like the sound) and what nicknames would you use?
Thanks!
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] (nn [name_u]Theo[/name_u] or [name_u]Teddy[/name_u]) [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] but only with [name_u]Theo[/name_u] as a nickname
[name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m] (nn [name_m]Tad[/name_m])- [name_u]Love[/name_u] this is theory but i feel like my mouth has a hard time actually saying this name!!! LOL
[name_m]Leopold[/name_m] (nn [name_m]Leo[/name_m])- [name_m]LEO[/name_m]… just plain [name_m]LEO[/name_m] not a fan on [name_m]Leopold[/name_m]!
[name_m]Leander[/name_m] - [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t like it! too close to [name_f]Leanne[/name_f]!
[name_m]Atticus[/name_m] (worried it’s getting a bit popular)- [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] it! I so wanted to name my boy [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] only it was vetoed by dh
[name_m]Etienne[/name_m]- I actually like this one! Very french but nice!
