I already posted a poll below. Unfortunately, we still haven't figured it out, and time is running out. After going through all the names again, we've narrowed it down to the following options. Which one do you prefer?

    It depends on the last name.

    Without knowing the last name, I'd go with Henri, but the other two are also great.

    The last name is a first name that starts with D.
    So we want a clear name, because it's already hard enough with the 2 first names.
    Henri is what I mean in French, right? (French family)

    I think I know what the French D-first name stands for. Then I'd definitely go with the French pronunciation of Henri. Maurice is a syllable too long, and William works but doesn't flow quite as nicely with the French last name as Henri does.

    I think Maurice sounds really nice, but I also think William is a lovely name! William seems very likable to me!
    So I’d go with either Maurice or William.

    Henri? Mmm, not really my thing! I’d much rather hear Maurice or William.

    Based on a French surname, I’d choose a French first name, so Maurice or Henri.

    So not William, because that’s English.
