Boys Names- Which do you like better?

Ok, We had settled on Holden and now my husband brought up a name he liked, which is Nico/Niko or Nicos/Nikos. His family is half Greek and he like that it sounds ethnic. I can't decide which I like better now. What do you all think?

Nico was my number one choice for a boy. I ended up having 2 DDs instead.

Re: Boys Names- Which do you like better?

Traditionally, Nikos (Niko) is the Greek spelling, while Nico is traditionally the Italian way to spell. I'm Greek, my son is named Nicholas but his NN is Niko. I'm also a stickler and correct if someone spells it with a C but that's my craziness!!

Edit to add I voted Nico/Niko Chat Icon

You mentioned your DH is half Greek... Which half? If it's his fathers side is your last name is really Greek? If so, I would go with Niko. If your last name isn't all that ethnic I would stick with Holdon.

ETA: I happen to love Nico/Niko. We are Italian and considered Nico if DD was a Chat Icon
