Ralph, Josh, or Stef

Help! We're already 27 weeks along and can't figure out a name for our son. We've narrowed it down to three names that we all like, but we still have some doubts. It's important that the name works well for both a child and an adult, isn't too common (we don't want four kids with the same name in the class), and doesn't sound too "hood" or lower-class when combined with the surname (which sounds Spanish). The names we're considering are Ralph, Josh, and Stef.

    I think Stef is terrible, sorry.
    And I also see a man there who drinks a lot, neglects himself, and dresses poorly.
    Why, I don't know, sorry, that's just how the name comes across to me, not a fresh name either.
    Josh is nice, short and powerful, and a nice name.
    But the most beautiful from your list is Ralph, very nice and chic.
    Good luck with your baby.
    Greetings, Madelene

    I think Ralph and Josh are the prettiest! Ralph is a bit more chic and Josh is a bit more cheerful...
    Honestly, I don't think Stef is a beautiful name either!

    I'd go for Ralph! It's a tough name and you don't hear it much.
    Personally, I don't really like the other two names.

    I’m clicking Ralph, I think it’s the max just :-) a little bit chic, but still short, powerful and tough, ...

    If there weren’t so many people with that name in our area, this would be on my list!

    let me know what it turned out to be! xxx

    I think Stef is super cool!
    I also know someone who has that name, and they're pretty cool too
    But it really depends on who or what you connect the name with, or whether you just like the name or not..

    Ralph is a great choice.

    Stef works, but it's kind of a short form of Stefan.

    I wouldn't go with Josh if you have a Spanish-sounding last name.

    It's Ralph! :-).
