Which boys name do you prefer?

Question

My husband and I have decided that we like a name, but we aren't sure which version we prefer.

Azariah Benjamin or

Azriel Benjamin

If you do not like the name and are going to make a rude comment please keep it to yourself.

I am only looking for opinions on which version of the name is better and why?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Yes Go With Azriel Benjamin it sounds nicer! Good Luck picking....i know it can be hard we changed our names twice!!!

Answer 2

I like Azariah best!  It seems more masculine to me than the other name, I also think that it flows better with Benjamin.  Good luck and congrats!

Answer 3

Azriel is a bit easier to pronounce. I said them outloud and had trouble with Azariah. I couldn't decide how to say it.

Plus, with a mn with 3 syllables, I'd say it flows better to have a shorter first name.

Answer 4

Well I like both. but Azriel sounds more like a girls name. I think Azariah is better.

Answer 5

Azriel Benjamin is my fav of those too.  I loooove "Az'' names and since my partner wont let me name my child Azainan i am going to name my next dog that.  Azariah contains too many syllables and does not flow as smoothly.  Also the "i" throws it off and makes it more difficult, not necessarily to pronounce, but just in general.

Answer 6

Azriel looks too much like Ariel...so I'd go with Azariah.

Answer 7

I like Azriel Benjamin better

Cool name..

Answer 8

I like Azariah.....It sounds more masculine. Azriel kinda sounds feminine. They're absolutely beautiful though. Good choices!

Answer 9

i would much more prefer Azariah its more of a boy name the other u could use as a girls

but its yr choice

good luck

Answer 10

Azariah sounds totally better cuz Azriel remins me of Ariel which is obviously a girls name..

Answer 11

I like Azariah Benjamin Not sure why I just do I guess it sounds a little more manly  because Azriel if you take the z out its Ariel they are both cute and I can see why you cant decide. But Azariah gets my vote.

Answer 12

Azariah Benjamin is nice

Answer 13

Azariah because Azriel was the bad guy on the smurfs I think.

Answer 14

Azariah Benjamin, I like a lot. It's a good strong name and I think Azariah matches Benajmin better than Azriel.

Answer 15

I like Azriel better

Answer 16

I like the name Azriel a lot more than the name Azariah. Because Azriel is easier to pronounce and Azariah has too many "a" sounds. Azriel Benjamin sounds nice, but Benjamin Azriel sounds even nicer....maybe you should consider using  Benjamin as a first name and Azriel as his middle name! Hope this helps and good luck with your baby boy! =)
