Baby BOY name Poll

Poll

Which name do you prefer?

Our baby boy is due in a few months and we can't decide. Help please! Our last name is Irish and goes well with all of these. 
  • Leo Patrick (61.8%)
  • Leo Hughes (both family names) (27.5%)
  • Kelly Patrick III (would call him KP and would obviously be after my husband and FIL) (10.6%)
  • Total Votes: 207

LOVE Leo! Patrick or Hughes are great.

I don't like KP. I don't think it flows as a nn at all. I just hear "Capey."

I love Leo, and like it best with Hughes. I don't care for KP at all.

I like Kelly but I don't like KP. I do like the NN of Kel for the name Kelly though. Good friend of mine has this FN/NN

 I kind of like that as well. I'm am not sold on KP at all and I really like the name Kelly as well, I am just worried about 3 Kelly's in the family since we are with my in laws a lot.

I like Leo Patrick.  KP makes me think of "Kitchen Patrol"

I love Kelly Patrick! That combo is actually on our boy list too. Not a fan of KP though.

Leo Patrick all the way. KP is my least favorite. It's an unusual abbreviation and not as easy to say, like TJ or something.

If you name your son Kelly Patrick III you could nn him Tripp instead of KP if you like this nn. I think it's cute for a III.
