Do you like it? Does is go OK with Harry (DS1)? Any middle name suggestions?
LCN

PS We know it's popular but it's the only one we both like & let's face it, Harry's hardly unique

I love Oscar. I love Harry too!

Personally, I like middle names to have a family connection... My DS's middle name is after my Grandad.

Goes very well. I know 2 Oscars. Both lovely boys,but my granny had a smelly old cat called Oscar and I'm afraid I can't get beyond that.

I think Harry and Oscar go beautifully together.
I agree with Haribo - do you have any family names you could use?

If not how about

Oscar Stanley
Oscar Gregory
Oscar Jude
Oscar Henry
Oscar Graham
Oscar James

The poor child will actually have 2 middle names and the 2nd is an (odd) family name so we'd rather just find a 1st middle name we like for aesthetic/poetic reasons!

I like George as a middle name, and Henry.

we have an Oscar
he has a family type name for a middle name but I think most manes go with it for a second name

We have an Oscar Dennis

Also considered
Oscar Gabe
Oscar Travis
Oscar Jules

Looking back he probably got off lightly

LOVE Oscar, it was our number one choice if DD was going to be a boy... we were going to go with Oscar Gabriel.

I adore Oscar. My DS was nearly, nearly called it but it had gone to someone else

Yes it is very cute, and goes very well with Harry.

I wanted Oscar Laszlo (my FIL's name) but was not allowed!
