Reuben is lovely.

Otis.
Oscar and Otis sound really good together but are different enough not to be confused. Just make sure he has a differrent middle initial.

I think Otis and Oscar are far too similar. I really like Jude.

Think Otis is my favourite but worried about both of them being ‘o’ 😩

Ted/Teddy have been extremely common the last couple of years.

Forgot Otis! Think Oscar and Otis too samey

Giraffesandducks · 08/11/2020 13:48

I think Reuben is lovely with Oscar
Ted and Jude nice too
Not so keen on Beau or Harry personally

Love ted but very popular.
Jude is also increasing in popularity, not to my taste
Otis is nice but might be a pain having the same initials
Beau very popular again, not my taste again, I find it a bit cutesy
Reuben is lovely, was on my boys list for DD
Harry it’s nice but there’s so many of them, there’s 4 in my daughters year at school

Forgot to add Noah!
