Joe, Guus, or Jurre

Hi! I'm 31 weeks along and time is starting to run out. What names do you think are nice for our first baby? What associations do you have with them? The last name starts with a T. I'm making two polls since we don't know the gender yet. Other suggestions are still welcome, of course. Thanks!

    They're all pretty nice actually!
    I find Jurre the least exciting.
    Joe and Guus are both smooth names. Maybe the English 'Gus' could work too. Just a little bit different.

    I really like Jurre!

    Jurre and then Guus. I actually find Joe completely different from those two and not really that nice.

    Nice, congratulations!
    I think Guus has the most beautiful sound.
    Jurre isn't my taste and seems really tough for him in a foreign context too.
    Joe is a good name, but indeed quite different.
    Gijs, Jent, Vic, Rein, Bruun, Fer, Jake come to mind further.

    Nice, congratulations!
    I think Guus is classic, but really beautiful.
    I have to say I don't really like Jurre, but everyone has their own preferences. I know someone called 'Jur' and it sounds the same as 'Your' or 'You're', which is silly in an English context.
    I think Joe is fine, but for the Netherlands, Guus is nicer.
    Good luck!!

    Honestly, I don’t really like these names, but out of these three, I think Joe is the best.
    Guus, I see a farmer in that name, not sure why—a quiet, boring farm boy. And Jurre, I don’t really feel anything for it, but I also don’t have a specific image in mind. Joe seems a bit tough.
