Catholic boy's name - which one do you prefer?

Question

Gabriel Joseph

or

Sebastien Joseph

Please let me know where you are from - husband thinks one of the names wont do well in the USA. I disagree.

Answer 1

Sebastian

I personally have been born and raised an American!

Answer 2

Gabriel Joseph... you could call him Gabe for short . i'm not sure how Sebastian would go over in schools, but you never know..I live in the US

Answer 3

I would not consider these "Catholic" names, but I definitely prefer Gabriel Joseph. My cousin is named Sebastian, but with an "a" instead of an "e," which is the more traditional spelling.

Best of luck, LR

i love the name Sebastien. I'm from the US and think it will work well, here. It is an unusual name, but that just makes it all the better.  

Answer 14

Gabriel Joseph is a really nice name. he is a little right. They actually had a segmant on Tyra banks about peoples names and the sterio types that come with them. Choose what you want to though. I am from Michigan USA

Answer 15

I love anything with Joseph. My son is Joseph David (also both Bible names).  From the good old USA.

Answer 16

I'm from New England.

I like Gabriel Joseph more than Sebastien.

Gabriel is becoming more and more popular these days, and it is very cute on a little boy.

I also know that we call friends with the name Sebastien "sea bass".

Kids may also make fun of the child for having the name of the crab from Little Mermaid.

Answer 17

i am from the usa and i know a man and a child with the name gabriel both called gabe

one was my supervisor the other a friends nephew.

Answer 18

I live in the USA first of all, and I like Gabriel Joseph the best.  To me it has a nicer flow, and would be something convenient, because of the nickname Gabe.  You can't call a kid Seb.  Good luck!

Answer 19

Gabriel Joseph!

I love that, you could call him Gabe for short.

I am from the USA and that name would do fine

Answer 20

I live in the U.S and I think either will do very well considering all the other names you'll be up against (Apple, Levi, Knox, Miller, Moses...should I go on?)

But my favorite would be Gabriel Joseph, I happen to think Sebastien is a bit of a mouthful and it reminds me of the trash monster on Sesame Street.

From Maryland, U.S.A. ^_^

Answer 21

I like both, but i think Gabriel is a little bit better and I'm from the U.S
