I voted for Isaiah. I also like Xavier, but I was wondering how you're saying it?

How do you pronounce Tronolone?

Your taste is not too far off from mine.

Cedric is one of my top two, I would definitely use if I had a baby tomorrow boy names. I love it.

Gabriel, Jasper, and Matteo are also excellent names.

The ones I don't like:
Holden - I dislike that it sounds like a verb - holdin'. Paired with whatever mn, say Michael, I think "Holdin' Michael?" It just bugs me.
Matthew - So boring. So, so, SOOO boring.
Xavier - Like it pronounced ZAY-vee-er. Love it that way. But would never ever use it because of all the people who mispronounce it X-ay-vee-er (even though no other X words are pronounced that way...)
Isaiah - Too common. I know 3 or 4 baby Isaiahs, and I really don't know a lot of babies.
Jace - Too nicknamey by itself.

I like Jace, but as a nickname.

I think Xavier Daniel sounds nice.

i really like holden, i like the way it sounds and i just like literary names. but with such an obvious reference, (i'd feel the same if it were atticus, scout, ect) it does seem slightly pretentious.

matthew is a good name, although common. idk, i've always liked it.

xavier is very popular but i do like the way it sounds. i wouldn't use it because it's not really my style, but i like it anyway.

not a fan of cedric.

daniel is kind of meh, it's a decent name but it's boring somehow, more so than matthew.

i don't like matteo.

isaiah is ok, there's something about it that i don't like. i love isaac though.

i don't like jace, it sounds like a nickname instead of a full name.

i've started to love gabriel lately, it's my favorite on this list.

jasper sounds somehow pretentious to me. like i remember a few years ago when the whole ~scene~ thing was in with the teenagers with black hair and so many silly boys renamed themselves jasper.

Thank you - your comments were really helpful! I like Gabriel lately to, especially if he is born on his due date: Christmas Day!

[arbus.livejournal.com]

i voted for matthew, matteo, isaiah, gabriel and jasper. i like holden too, but not with your last name.

[0o-faerie.livejournal.com]

I like Holden, Matteo & Daniel best. Actually the only one I really don't like is Jace...I think it's sounds too much like a nickname.

[tinydrea.livejournal.com]

Yup!

[blue-suspenders.livejournal.com]

I said Gabriel.
But it was a hard choice!

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

I like Matthew and Daniel best. Xavier, Cedric, Matteo, Isaiah, and Gabriel are also nice, although I think Isaiah is pretty trendy. Jasper is okay. I've never liked Holden, but that could just be because I had a horrific teacher in elementary school named Mrs. Holden, haha. Jace sounds very informal, but you could probably use it as a nickname for Jasper.

[tinydrea.livejournal.com]

I can't believe i didn't even think of that lol! Thank you!

[lovablemess.livejournal.com]

I think Matthew and Gabriel go best with your last name, for sure.

[ifancylust.livejournal.com]

loooove matteo.

[lilacmermaid.livejournal.com]

My favourites are Matthew and Matteo. I also like Daniel and Xavier.

I used to like Gabriel, but it has become so popular lately that I'm sick of it.

[leaveitalone.livejournal.com]

Holden is a car brand in Australia, so it's always weird to me.
I like Matthew, Xavier and Jasper.

[duckduckcaboose.livejournal.com]

I voted for Matthew and Gabriel. I think both would sound really nice with your last name, perhaps even Matthew Gabriel?
