Stuck between 2 boy names

[spicysalmonroll]

I'm 30 weeks and we just cannot decide. We both love both names- H leans a little more towards Eli and I lean a little more towards Cole, but we'd both be happy with either. Robert is my father and H's late grandfather so that is not changing (i.e. we can't do Eli Cole). Last name sounds like barista.

What are your thoughts??

Eli. At least for me this was not a difficult choice.

[suelou18]

I like Eli over Cole.

[honeylemon]

Eli for sure over Cole

[seamonster]

Eli over Cole.

[helenahhandbasket]

I prefer Cole in this case, but I think Robert sounds better paired with Eli.

[dreadpiratebuttercup]

Most definitely Eli.

[wibblywobbly]

I really like Eli, it's on our shortlist in fact. And, I think it sounds better with Robert.

Eli and Cole are about the same for me. Both are NMS but still good, solid names.

[spicysalmonroll]

Thanks everyone!! I was worried because Elijah is ranked #11 and most of them will probably go by Eli in school. But apparently it's only ranked #60 in my state so that's good.

I have to pick Cole... I just really don't care for Eli.

[ugotstarbucked]

Eli >>>>>Cole

[cabbagecabbage]

I'm not into Cole at all, so easy pick for me. FWIW, I know a ton of babies and kids and know zero Elis. I know at least 3 Coles though.

[hangry]

What's funny, is that I know a sibset Eli and Cole.

I would give the edge to Eli.

Eli>Cole

I only know one Eli (nn of Eli.as). I know a lot of Coles and I don't like any of them.

[jags8]

Eli, hands down.

+1

+2

Neither is my favourite but I prefer Eli. I used to hate it because of a bad association but it has dulled some. My adoration for Elias has forced me to come around to it I think.
