I have always loved the name Xavier..it just sounds so masculine and strong. There's never been a doubt in my mind that if we have a boy he's definitely going to be a 'Xae' (zay)...Xavier Keziah.

I'm 18 weeks pregnant and thinking about calling my little boy Xavier. My family don't like it but my husband and I love it.
