boy vs. names

We are expecting our first child, a little boy and we are having such a hard time trying to decide on a name for him. We have narrowed our list down to our 6 favorite names and we can't stop keep going back and forth between them. We would truly appreciate getting some outside opinions and hearing what comes to your mind when you first hear them? What kind of vibe do you think that they give off or what do you "picture" when you hear them? Thank you!

I love Gabriel. Great name. Feel like it is an all around boy's name.
Jesse is great to. It is all boy. I picture a sweet impish boy.
Nathaniel a strong traditional name. It will still be popular 100 years from now.

I don't care for Sebsstian. Feels like a stuffy and stuck up vibe.
Alexander way to popular. There is likely to be one in his class.
Asher too trendy. Here today gone tomorrow.

Alexander ~ I love it! I also love both Alex and Zander/Xander
Asher ~ again I love it but I think it could be getting quite popular
Gabriel ~ I like it but I always think of the angel but that could be a good thing!
Jesse ~ to me this name has sounded exactly like the girl name Jessie or Jessica
Nathaniel ~ I love it! Very handsome
Sebastian ~ I like it and the nickname Seb is cool but it reminds me of the crab sorry

Alexander - not a fan, way too popular imo
Asher - don't like it on grown ups
Gabriel - don't like it, too religious imo
Jesse - not a fan but I can't tell you why
Nathaniel - okay
Sebastian - I really like Sebastian, pretty name that will age well

Alexander and Gabriel are two of my sons' names, so of course I love them! Sebastian is a wonderful name. I like Asher, too. Jesse and Nathaniel just don't appeal to me. For whatever reason, I get a cowboy/westerny vibe with the name Jesse.

Alexander: Classic, always a good choice. And if there's another Alex and he doesn't like going by Alex "last initial", he could go by Xander.
Asher: While not fully my style, it is a biblical name, so I rather doubt it will be a "here today gone tomorrow" situation. I've never met an Asher and have a hard time envisioning what one might be like.
Gabriel: This name is handsome and dignified to me, though I dislike the nickname Gabe.
Jesse: A strong name, makes me think of someone reliable you can depend on.
Nathaniel: Another classic name, I don't think you could go wrong with it, but it's not my favorite. I don't care much for Nate, either, but I like Nathan better than either of them.
Sebastian: The Sebastians I have known have been either a) foreign or b) very cultured. I think there's a certain mystique to the name.

I love Alexander and Jesse, Sebastian is the only name on the list I don't like.

Alexander - Classic, but a little plain for my taste
Asher - I picture an easy going guy. Strong name.
Gabriel - I have never like Gabriel unfortunately. For some reason I think of an irritating person...
Jesse - My name is Jessie, so naturally I love it :) But biased aside, I think the male form of Jesse is due for a comeback!
Nathaniel - Similar to Alexander, classic name, but forgettable.
Sebastian - Cool name. I picture a kid who is both athletic and artistic.

Alexander, Asher, or Sebastian!

I hate Gabriel; it sounds so harsh and grating.

Alexander - strong & classic nn Alex works all through life
Jesse - nice name, gender neutral so if that's a consideration
Asher - it's ok but very trendy
Nathaniel- another strong classic nn Nate or Nathan carries well into adulthood
Gabriel- Not bad nn Gabe, I like others better
Sebastian- Not a fan, reminds me of Little Mermaid

Alexander - verstile, good for any age, suits any profession, friendly
Asher - naughty child, good for teen, never known an adult Asher but imagine him to be strong, laidback, friendly
Gabriel - slightly posh, religious, clever, kind
Jesse - cool, trendy, sufer, fun
Nathaniel - prefer Nathan, nice, friendly, Nate is a cool nickname.
Sebastian - arogant, rude, not nice
