This would be my order. Covers the whole spectrum there. Rupert I love and Jaymin I think is comprehensivelyterrible.
I would use Rupert, I don't mind Ezra, Dance and Vance are meh and the others are terrible.

Callan would be my favourite. Callan James is really nice.
I don't mind Rupert but I prefer Rueben.
My Brother that passed away 2 yrs ago was named Jamon, if we were to have a son I would consider this as a middle name.
Don't like any of the others.

Ezra is my one and only pick - absolutely love it

James is blahhhh though - would pick another middle name to go with Ezra.

This exactly, except I like Ezra more than LynnyP does and would use that or Rupert. Zaccheus isn't terrible either, and I don't mind Callum (but not Callan).

Hartley Alexander nn Hart-dislike and really, really dislike the nickname Hart
Ezra James nn Ez- ok
Jaymin Alexander nn Jay-really, really dislike Jaymin
Rupert Alexander/James nn Roo-cute
Chandler James nn CJ?-ok
Dane Alexander-ok
Vance Alexander-dislike
Kent James/Alexander-really dislike
Linden Alexander-ok, prefer Landon or Lincoln
Callan James-ok, love Callum James/Alexander though
Zaccheus Alexander-dislike, Zachary Alexander/James is nice though
Mackenzie Alexander-like, I wouldn't call it unusual though
Everett James-ok
The only one I really like is Mackenzie Alexander to be honest. I think Rupert is cute but I can't picture it on anything but a kangaroo.

None of them appeal to me. Except Mackenzie. And Alexander of course (but you seem to only suggest it as a middle name). It is a great first name.

Hartley Alexander nn Hart wub.gif - Cute
Ezra James nn Ez - Might be a bit too exotic for a boy
Jaymin Alexander nn Jay - unusual - I like it!
Rupert Alexander/James nn Roo - Makes me think of Rupert Murdoch, sorry.
Chandler James nn CJ? - REALLY like this one, my no.1
Dane Alexander - mmmm....
Vance Alexander - I like this, very nice ring to it
Kent James/Alexander - Why not all 3? Very strong name
E2A:
Linden Alexander - Feel that linden is a little too feminine
Callan James - Ok, but doesn't grab me
Zaccheus Alexander - How do you pronounce it? Zak-ee-us? Like the look of it, although he'll be forever spelling it to people.
Mackenzie Alexander - Bit too feminin, I know 2 Mackenzie's who are girls.
Everett James - Really like this, unusual in Australia
I like your list, it's hard, you might have to wait until you see him, though...
Good luck,

I love Ezra - Its been in my top three for the last 2 pregnancies - but we had girls.
lovemy3
25/04/2008, 04:34 PM
I think you have a great bunch to choose from! Goodluck
The three at top of my list would be...........
Hartley Alexander - We loved Hartley as a middle name, I've never heard anyone else use it or even mention it. I think it's a strong name.
Dane Alexander - I know a few very nice men called Dane.
Jaymin Alexander - Same as Dane although he's spelt Jamin.

I really love Mackenzie Alexander
I think that Mackenzie is a very masculine strong name. Regardless of how many girls are given this name, its still all male to me.

My partner and I have decided on Jai (rhymes with "sky) with the middle name Rhys. Chris wanted Jairhys as one word but when you say it, I think Rapper or Hip Hop Icon, you know Ja Rule etc, and we just can't pull that kind of image off

. We compromised and are really happy with the outcome.
