It's very boring as a first name. I know a lot of Josephs. Add people who's MN is Joseph, and that's a lot more.

Well I've never met a Joseph I didn't like. The name makes me think of a cute little boy but can also be a successful adult man. Usually I've heard nicknames like Jay or Joe for this name. I love Diego but Amadeus sounds better with Joseph.

Not boring, but very religious. I much prefer Josiah!

I love Joseph! I think it's so handsome. My 10 year old brother's name is Joseph. I don't think he's ever met another that's his age. I don't know many babies or young kids named Joseph either. I also think the nicknames Joe or Joey are nice, very friendly and good natured sounding.

Yes, it's very handsome. I adore Joseph but Joseph only and not any shortened version. Joseph Amadeus is a stunning combo.

Joseph is a great name! I think of all the ubiquitous men's names, it may be my very favorite. You can't go wrong with Joseph, Joey, or Joe. Both your combos are gorgeous, though I would opt for Joseph Diego because Amadeus is a little pretentious on a real person. Do you like Joseph Amedeo or Joseph Amadeo? I also like Joseph Paschal, Joseph Asa, Joseph Leon, Joseph Xavier. I think it's a great Fn to pair with an unusual Mn.

I love Amadeus so much that it actually saves the combo for me but Joseph is indeed a little boring as a first name for my taste. But I'm sure a lot of people will disagree, so don't worry.

I used to find it boring, but have enjoyed it more the past few months. It's very classic and handsome. I went to school with TONS of Josephs, so I can picture it on just about anyone, which I think is always a nice quality to have in a name for your child. You never know who they'll turn out to be!I think both of those combos are really nice. It's so hard to pick between them! To fit best in your family, I think I'd go with Joseph Diego.

It's nice enough, but yes, I think it is boring, the same way that John, Thomas, Robert, and William are boring.

Joseph Diego rocks! Then again, I adore Diego. Joseph is nice too if a little unremarkable. Still, I can get with Joseph but not Joe which is too dull for me.

Joseph is OK as a full name, but Joe has got to be the friendliest nn of all time.Joseph Daniel? Joseph Bernard? Joseph Adrian?

It's a name I never tire of. I think it's so strong and handsome.
Both those combos are good. I slightly go for Joseph Diego more, because it flows a little nicer. But on their own Amadeus is more my style than Diego.
