We have potentially 2 boy names and I need an opinion. What do you think of the following names:
Thomas Arthur or Garett Thomas
Neither of these names are to be shortened...

If you want to avoid nicknames, then I'd go with Garett. Thomas would probably get shortened more often to Tom or Tommy. Garett on the other hand is rarely shortened.

I agree with Katie 100%
I think teachers, friends, family or anyone really would potentially shorten Thomas to Tommy or Tom. So unless you have the patience to correct every person, I would choose Garett which I think is a very handsom name.

While I think Thomas is a great name, I think it can be somewhat bland, and I prefer it in the middle name slot. Garett has a little more personality, and as others have said, hardly an nickname potential there. I would personally spell it Garrett though

Thank you ladies... I honestly prefer and am leaning towards Garret

My cousin Garrett goes by Gary and my husbands co-worker Garett (Spelled Garhett) goes by Rhett just so you are aware.
