I LOVE the name Declan! It was on my boys name list until I found out I'm having a girl (woo hoo!)
Eli was also on there
my fiance vetoed both- said they were dumb- he liked Andrew. (roll eyes)
I'd go with Declan... Elijah John is a mouthful!

Definitely Elijah John. It's unique enough and can be shortened easily. It also just sounds better. The ending of Declan (if I'm pronouncing it correctly) has a similar ending to John which is kind of strange to verbalize. Whereas Elijah John rolls much better. Anywho, early congrats and good luck!!!

Elijah is nice. The short of that is ELI. Both sound powerful. Declan leaves him open for name calling. You dont want that. What is short for that? Clan? Could also sound like "the clan", that isnt good either.

I don't care for either, personally.. but that might be because I have three girls and haven't ever really been fond of many baby boy names! If I had to pick one of the two, I would definitely pick Elijah. I like the name Nemiah (if you're going with the Biblical ones), or Aiden, Jayden, Jace, Ethan, Ellis, Nicholas, Christopher, Michael (Michael John sounds really good), Jake, Drake, Chase - if you like more 'regular' names.

I like Declan John but here is another one for you if your interested Connor, and that can be spelled many ways. Another idea is Caleb. If you are Christian or Catholic you might want to take a look at the bible and there may be some different name you might want to consider. Good luck with your son.
