[Opinions] Jules for a boy
I've always really liked this. WDYT? Maybe as a nn for Julius or maybe on its own.

I love it and think it's quite fine.Julian and Julius are popular enough that a little Jules wouldn't be teased, plus you have Jules Verne.

I like it for both. Very handsome and not heard often. I also like the english and french pronunciations. I like Julius more than Jules though, so on my shortlist there is Julian nn Jules, but I like it as a full name as well. Jules Benjamin came to me as much as I hate to admit it.

I think it very nice. I prefer it on its own and not as just a nn.

I love it. I think it functions fine as a full name, and that's how I prefer it, but it would be nice as a nickname for Julius too. It makes me think of "Hey Jude" which was originally "Hey Jules" after John Lennon's son. A very nice association for an underused, handsome name :)

I love it. That's probably largely due to a character in one of my favorite series, whose name is Jules. (I think it's his given name, the only time they ever called him Julian was when he was undercover and his cover name was Julian.) He's an awesome character.I could see it for Julius or Julian. Preferably, I'd go with Julian.

I think its lovely on a boy especially when used as a nn for Julius or Julian.

I really like Jules. I don't know if I'd use it myself since I already like so many Jul- names, but it's great. Julius or Julian nn Jules is sweet, too.

I think Jules for a boy is awesome! Either on it's own or as a nn, but I think I like it on it's own better.
