Bennett Graham or Graham Bennett?

Help us pick a name for our baby boy! Big brother's name is Colin.

I absolutely love Bennett but am afraid it's getting trendy. I also don't want to "timestamp" him - I have a name that peaked in the 80's and then never again, if that makes sense.

I really like Graham, too. I think it's handsome and classic. I haven't gotten as many positive responses in real life to Graham, though, and some people have mentioned the "cracker" reference. It doesn't bother me too much, though.

Thoughts?

I prefer Bennett as the fn, but both are solid. I don't think you can go wrong either way.

Colin and graham go well together. Bennett is too surnamey for my preference

Bennett always struck me as a last name. I've never actually met someone fn Bennett, only as a last name. Graham is a million times better in my opinion.

I prefer Graham for 1st name.

Graham Bennett. In my books, Bennett is a surname which would make your son " The Boy with Two Last Names."

Graham Bennett.
On the topic of trendiness: I have a friend who named her little girl Bennett last year. Odd to me because I think of it as masculine, but it might be one of the next names that goes to the girls. Only time will tell!

Graham Bennett, definitely.

I happen to know a dude named Graham who teaches at a Bennett High School... good guy.

I love both actually, but I think Graham is the winner!

I love Bennett!!!!   In fact, it was on my list for boy names.  My husband refuses anything but common, boring names.

Graham Bennett!

Graham for sure it's solid and pairs with colin . Bennett is so trendy and surnamey which is more likely to be timestamped.

I taught a little boy named Bennett that was adorable so I have a preference toward that. Like many PP have said, I don't think you could go wrong either way.

I know it's massively popular right now, but I am not a huge fan of Graham.  I'd use Bennett as the first name and Graham as the mn if you feel strongly about it.

Graham Bennett. Graham will age better as a first name, and if it makes you feel better, I don't think of the crackers
