Jude for a boy?

I am 22 weeks pregnant and having a boy, was wondering what people thought of Jude as a boy's name?

He may be called Jude Xavier (Xavier as we got engaged in St Francis Xavier church in Goa).

Or does anyone have any other good first names that may go with Xavier as this part of the name is a definite!

Thank you for your ideas!

My son is called Jude, he is 4 years old with blonde curly hair and huge brown eyes. We get so many nice comments about his name and he happens to love it too. You never need to spell it out, explain the pronunciation and there aren't many little Jude's about. I was worried when pregnant that it would become a common name but so far we've only met one other one and he was an older boy.

I get asked if he was named after the Beatles song or Jude Law and while I am a Beetles fan, he was named Jude purely because I loved the name. He does love it whenever he hears the song "hey Jude" though!

So a big YES from me re the name Jude and good luck with your baby!
