Otis or Tobias

[JanuaryJuniper]

Which do you prefer and why? We love them both equally, siblings would be Eli and Aphra! (Not pregnant btw, I have pcos and it takes AGES to conceive so I like to try focus in the fun stuff like names)

[DramaAlpaca]

I like both equally as well, and they both go with your other names so it's even harder to choose.

I suppose it depends on whether or not you like Toby, as that is what Tobias is likely to get shortened to.

I've always loved Otis

I will be honest Toby wouldn't be my favourite, I like it but would personally just use Tobias, if friends used Toby it would be ok ish I guess.

[Jooni]

I really like both, but Otis feels quirkier and fits a little better with your other kids' names IMO.

[Grufallosfriend]

Otis is nicer and more interesting.

Not so keen on Otis, but LOVE the name Tobias. I would call my own baby that but had an ex called Toby... so feels a bit wrong to.

[TeshiB]

Otis! Fits with the other names nicer.

[bluechameleon]

I love Toby and would choose this myself, but I think Otis is a great match with your other names.

[ClaryIsTheBest]

Otis. Really nice name :)

And Toby or Tobias just doesn't really go with Eli and Aphra.

[JanuaryJuniper]

You are all really selling me on Otis

[MarmiteDoesYouGood]

I love Otis. It was very nearly the name of our DS1.

Not a fan of Tobias.

[Buntysoven]

Otis. It's so cool. LOVE your other children's names too.

Tobias. It is is an aardvark!

[Raines100]

*Otis is an aardvark.

[JanuaryJuniper]

The aardvark thing doesn't bother me, never even heard of it before tbh had to have a Google.

Now I really dying to get a BFP so I can use Otis

[Joeybee]

I prefer Tobias, but both are nice. For me I can't disassociate Otis from the company who make life and escalators!
