I like to give my kids English names on their birth certificates. Besides for Mark/Marc, what is a name I can use for Moshe?

I go with Moses.
But not Morris. At least do Maurice if you're going there, OP.
ETA, and I recall the kids in elementary school referring to a boy as "Fartin' Martin" so I wouldn't go there, either.
I do like Mitchell.

And when I hear Morris I think of Morris the Moose.

Mitch is a nickname for Mitchell. I think it would be preferable to use the full name on a birth certificate.

These make me think of an old man. But maybe they’ll come back in...
Moses is the translation of Moshe, even though it’s also not that fashionable.

I love old man names. My kids have old people names. It's so cute.
Moses is out of the question lol

Matthew is Mattisyahu.
True story: The singer Mattisyahu was named Matthew. When he bacame frum he changed it to Mattisyahu, assuming that was his hebrew name. Much later on he discovered his hebrew name is actually...Faivish.  Anyway I would avoid giving an anglicised version of another hebrew name for that reason.
I think the name Moses is actually more trendy then Marvin or Morris.
