Baby Names

Eli or Tucker?

I have been set on Eli from the start and still love it, DH likes it but likes Tucker more, which I also love.  Ideas? 

Sorry don't know how to make a clicky poll!  TIA!

Re: Eli or Tucker?

  • What about Eli Tucker Lastname?

    I like both but if it was my name i would rather be named Eli then Tucker. 

  • I prefer Eli. I don't normally concern myself much with potential for teasing, because I think that really stems from the child's personality more than anything, but I would be slightly concerned with the potential issues with Tucker.

    Like the PP said, it would work as a middle name.

    Are you consider Elijah for the full name? It is nice to have the versatility of a formal name and nickname.?

    Tell your DH that tucker is slang for crossdressers that hide the goods by tucking them away between their legs. And the banana song game is baaad with a Tucker in the room. And it's a very, very popular dog name.

    Go with Eli. ;)

    Ok that is hilarious!

    LMAO Very creative way to get out of using the name Tucker!

    I prefer Eli, but I agree with PPs that you could use Tucker as a mn to compromise.

  • Tucker is my sister's dog's name.  i think it's cute for a dog...but not a person.

    I hate Tucker. Eli is ok. I like it a lot more than Tucker though.?
  • Love Tucker! However I went to high school with a Ben Tucker, and people often called him Ben F***er.. Real mature.
  • I vote Eli, and Agree that Eli Tucker sounds good:)


  • I prefer Eli
  • Tucker is one of my favorite names, and I really dislike Eli.  Kids & teens can turn *any* name into a sexual reference, so I don't really think that's too big of a deal.
  • I like Eli a lot. I just really don't like Tucker for some reason, totally nms.
  • I really like Eli Tucker Lastname.
  • I love the name Eli but Tucker is awful IMO, sorry.
  • I really like both of them. I like the name Tucker, but have too many friend's that have dog's named Tucker...
  • I like Eli better.
