Abel vs. Ezra vs. Jude

Simon, Eamon, Abram, Silas and Elisha. We’re having twin boys and like these names so far. We each have four names on our current list. We’d really appreciate if you could comment on the names, pick a favorite and least favorite and possibly leave other suggestions if you don’t like the names. Please state the reason for not liking the names because I don’t want to make a decision without a reason. No large lists, please just replace the name you don’t like with a different option. Thank you!

I love Ezra & Jude (:
I’m not a fan of any of the other names.

Ezra James & Jude Elijah are so handsome!

I love Ezra!
I don’t like Elisha though, I would replace it with Elijah. Elisha sounds very feminine to me.

I like Simon, Jude, and Ezra best.

Eamon doesn’t seem to fit in with the rest-it is an irish name and the rest of these are bible names. If you really love it, match it with something like Brogan, Cormac, or Declan.

Abram sounds too old sounding. Adam

Elisha sounds too much like Alicia-Elijah would be a good substitute

Abel is too...tragic? I mean, he was the first guy to ever get murdered. Try Caleb

Silas is okay, just not my fav.

LOVE Simon and Eamon. Cute for brothers. I know it sounds kind of girly, but I do quite like Elisha. Elisha and Eamon would also make a good combo, or Simon and Silas.

I forgot to mention that we have a son named Leo Darwin and a daughter Julietta Niamh, if that helps with the choices.

Also, Elisha and Elijah are pronounced almost identically.

We’re not religious at all.

My favorites are Simon and Silas.

Least Favorites are Abel, Eamon, and Ezra. I like the name Ezra, but it’s really feminine so I would only use Ezra on a girl (even though it’s a boy name).
