My hubby and I cannot decide on a name for our son, due in september. We have narrowed it down to 3.


Isaac, Luke, &/or Elijah.

I have never really cared for the name Luke. I love the names Elijah and Isaac. I think they both suit all three stages of life (baby, child, man). Isaac means he who laughs. Where Elijah means the lord is God. All three of these names are biblical, so either it's a coincidence, or you want a biblical name. Best of luck!

I love all 3, but of course I'm partial to Isaac.

My Isaac really "fits the name" as well.

I like all three in this order:
1. Elijah/nn Eli
2. Luke
3. Isaac

I have a bad association with the name Isaac and can't seem to get past it. But, it's still a good name! Will this be your first child?

Luke is my favorite. Luke was in my top 3 names until my neighbor used it, it's still a fave, but I can't ever use it.

I love the name Luke. I don't really care for Isaac or Elijah. Do you have a middle name to go with the names that can make a difference in the name.

I dont think Issac sounds like an old mans name and I think it has a nice meaning " laughter"

I don't think you can go wrong with any of those names.
