Orson?

I am currently loving Orson.

Pros: easy to pronounce and spell, unusual but not weird, sounds good with surname, DH is a big Citizan Kane fan!

Cons: sounds a bit horsey?!

What do you think?

Great name, don't know why it's not more popular.

Just makes me think of Mork- "Mork calling Orson"

However that just shows how old I am.

It's not dreadful... I'm a bit Meh.

I love it! It was high up on my list for DS. Smile

I like it and didn't think of "horse".

Really like Orson. Surprised people haven't leapt on to say " 'Orse n Cart" or Awesome though!

Love it but was vetoed by DH. Go for it!
