DS2 coming soon. Older brother is Sebastian and we’re a bit stuck choosing between these three names.
Thoughts?

We have a Jasper (and know a forty year old Jasper) it’s a great, old name.

I find that both Felix and milo are quite young-sounding names, like Toby, better if shoetened (like Tobin or Tobias)

Forgot about the Tweenies actually! Milo is my least favourite, but DP likes it.

Love Felix.

Milo is one of Tweenies. Not a good name. Miles is better, though I don't like that hugely either.

Jasper is a dog's name. And I just cannot imagine a middle aged man - a lawyer or accountant or something - called Jasper.

A name needs to work at all stages of life. Jasper only works for a kid.

Jasper is my favourite.

Love Felix!
Like Milo a lot
Not a fan of Jasper

I like all three names. As you have a Sebastian already I personally would go with Felix or Milo, I find the two names with 's' in the middle sound a bit harsh together x

I know three brothers called Felix, Milo and JasperGrin

Go with the one you like best.
