This may have already been mentioned for a name but my nephew is Ezekiel and is called Zeke for short which I really like.

You know with Dominic (we didn't know that he was a boy) we just couldn't focus on girl names and were adament about the boys names we liked. It was the oposite with Isobelle, just couldn't agree on a boys name. If you are having heaps of trouble with boys names maybe you are having a girl..?

I love James and all its variants, Jamie, Jim, Jimmy, Hamish, Seamus. |
Couldn't agree more .
The boy's name Zeke \z(e)-ke\ is pronounced zeek. It is of English origin. Short form of Ezekiel, Zaccheus, Zachariah, and Zachary.
I also like Zeb, \zeb\ is a variant of Zebediah (Hebrew) and Zebulon (Hebrew)...very similar to Seb but completely different full name, so you might win your DH over with this one?
How about Sol, short for Solomon?

Saffron, I like your theory but we had the exact same problem last time and it was a boy so think its the opposite for us  Poor DS wasn't named for about 24 hours.
I am a big fan of Zeke...hmmm.
I am very grateful for all your help, ladies!!!

I'm pretty sure Sebastian comes from a word meaning something not so nice, so thats probably why people don't like it. I think its and ok name.
I agree with James  great name
What about Mitchell-Mitch?
