What boy name do you like best?

We're debating between River and Elliot.

Middle name is to be determined. Last name will be hyphenated, and sounds similar to Marshall-Smith.

Update:

My concern with Elliot is nicknames like "smelliot".

I live in an area where a name like River wouldn't be made fun of for being unique, lots of hippie/unusual names here!

    Elliot Marshall-Smith is definitely a keeper! Elliot is sooo handsome and sophisticated and would age very well, whereas River is really trendy :/ Elliot River Marshall-Smith would be a good name though! :)

    Hope this helps!!
