[Opinions] Jonathan vs. Nathaniel
Which one, and why?
What would you use as a middle name?

Nathaniel
I always forget about Nathaniel, even though I have a thing for *el names. Nathan is very common in my generation but likeable, and Nathaniel's still a neat name...thoughtful verging on broody but practical and sweet.
Jonathan's okay, but I'm not drawn to it, in comparison.

I’d go with Jonathan, simply because I prefer the nn Johnny than any nn options for Nathaniel. Maybe Jonathan River, Jonathan Oak, Jonathan Amos or Jonathan Sage.
I think Jonathan pairs nicely with nature names.
Jonathan
I'd use it anyway. Nathaniel is okay but it has the whiny sound of Daniel.
Jonathan Patrick?

Nathaniel because it reminds me of Nathan, and I'm so fond of Nathan!
To be completely honest I prefer Nathan to Nathaniel.
Nathaniel Adam
Nathaniel Henry
Nathaniel Milo
Nathaniel Giles
Nathaniel Evert
Nathaniel Jack
Nathaniel Kyle
Nathaniel Evan / Eden
Nathaniel Alexander, it's long, I know, but it's also posh, too posh, I guess :)

So do I.
I like both, but I'd pick Jonathan at gunpoint - it's more down to earth. Jonathan Ambrose and Nathaniel... Cleopas???? No but seriously maybe Nathaniel Charles... Nathaniel Levi? Nathaniel James? None of these are completely satisfying.
