Best:
Arthur - It's just soo cute! A lot of names like this are gaining popularity. Arthur sounds like a gentle, loving, hardworking person.
Alexander - strong, traditional and lots of nickname potential
Luke - a nice name, but a bit bland.
Felix - Can't help but think of the cat!
Worse

Felix
Then Alexander
Then Luke at a push
Not Arthur, agree maybe Albert instead

Luke

Sophronia · 26/05/2017 00:00

Definitely Luke. Classic, handsome and underused.

Felix

Alexander or Luke.

Felix makes me think of the cat food, and Arthur just sounds too much like "half a..."

GiraffeorOcelot · 25/05/2017 23:50

Luke. Felix is a cat.

Nicky2468 · 25/05/2017 23:48

Alexander then Luke and Arthur. Felix makes me think cat unfortunately.

mamaduckbone · 25/05/2017 23:45

I have a Luke Arthur so either of those

noenemee · 25/05/2017 23:45

Felix

Headfullofdreams · 25/05/2017 23:43

Arthur

Run4Fun · 25/05/2017 23:40

Like all except Felix. It reminds me of the cat food ads.

Woody67 · 25/05/2017 23:38

Luke

midsomermurderess · 25/05/2017 23:33

Luke, it's underused, I think.

toffeeboffin · 25/05/2017 23:30

Alexander.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 25/05/2017 23:28

Luke

I have a strong dislike for Arthur.

WaitroseCoffeeCostaCup · 25/05/2017 23:12

They're all lovely except for Arthur! Not sure why it's so popular at the moment-Albert I kind of get as you can shorten it to Bertie but I don't 'get' Arthur!

Dontrocktheboat · 25/05/2017 22:57

Luke - short, simple and not too popular

The others are all fine. Alexander is my least favourite.

DramaAlpaca · 25/05/2017 22:56

I'm going to vote for Arthur, Alexander and Luke.

I'm not keen on Felix.

Blessedwithboys · 25/05/2017 22:55

Felix. I love that name
