Hugo

I don't think Casper goes that well with your other children's names, either of the other two names would work though, think I prefer Hector but like them both

Caspar!
(hector and hugo are both very fat with shiny faces and red cords and beer spilled down their front while watching the rugger in a pub in fulham)

Hector or Caspar.

I'm intrigued as to how a name can be posh - surely it is the person that determines whether someone is posh, chav or whatever. There must be all sorts of people named Hugo, posh and otherwise..Confused.

Seems such a strange British obsesson, this 'labelling' of names rather than people...

Caspar I just adore it!

Hector.

Not keen in Caspar.

DH isn't keen on Hugo because of its posh reputation... Didn't think that Caspar was a posho name though...?

I like all of them (not helpful, sorry!)

tammytoby · 30/09/2013 12:23

The meaning of Hector (bully, tormentor) would put me off, sorry. As would the lack of nicknames (Heck..?).

I like both Caspar and Hugo, but slightly prefer Caspar. What's wrong with 'super posho' - better than super chavo Grin!

Hector!!

Such a fantastic name and it puts the other two names firmly in the shade. Caspar and Hugo are both super posho and a bit wet.

Hugo is lovely. DH refuses to use it. I love it! Not so keen on Hector or Caspar, sorry!

Hector or Hugo. I love Hugo.
