We have narrowed the choice down to two names.
Which one do you prefer??

They both sound a bit like Star Wars characters.

RuthW · 25/07/2021 21:38

Felix

MaMelon · 25/07/2021 21:34

Jonah - Felix is a cat food. Please don’t saddle him with Wolf,

I think I’m leaning towards Felix .. but it changes every second day.
I think I sound fed up because I’ve tried deciding myself for so long and failed 😂
I appreciate all the honesty, it does help!

Felix and Jonah are both great names. Middle ones not so much.

ILoveShula · 25/07/2021 21:30

Felix Wolf or Felix Walker

Lockdownbear · 25/07/2021 21:29

I wouldn't use Walker unless it has a family link. Felix Walker could very easily become Felix Wanker Blush

Felix Wolf definitely sounds too animal to me.

NannyR · 25/07/2021 21:29

I really like Jonah. There is more to the book of Jonah in the bible than someone causing a storm on a ship.

daisypond · 25/07/2021 21:29

Felix.
Jonah is awful. It’s a word in the dictionary, meaning a jinx, bringer of bad luck.

@vickysh

Is Felix Wolf too ‘animal’? With the cat link to Felix and dog link to Wolf?
Definite no to Felix Wolf

You don't sound very keen on them yourself... why not keep looking?

jackstini · 25/07/2021 21:27

Love Jonah
Felix will always be a cat to me
Prefer Wolfe to Walker

diddlediddle · 25/07/2021 21:21

Is Walker your maiden name or another family-based surname? Fine if so but otherwise no way.

Wolf is kind of naff but I could tolerate it as a middle name. Definitely not with Felix, too animally. Don't mind Jonah so I guess Jonah Wolf is best. Felix Jonah is more sensible

Felix Wilf?

One of them means lucky, the other means unlucky. Is that just a coincidence?

Felix all the way for me anyway. Really dislike Wolf.

marmaladehound · 25/07/2021 21:16

Jonah wolf! Love the name Jonah abs wolf is different. I knew a guy who called himself wolf, it was his surname, but I liked it.

MorriseysGladioli · 25/07/2021 21:16

Yep.
Felix Wolf.

Benjispruce5 · 25/07/2021 21:15

I like Felix but Walker is a surname .

HelenaJustina · 25/07/2021 21:15

Felix all day long

AlwaysLatte · 25/07/2021 21:15

Felix Wolf

Hyacinth88 · 25/07/2021 21:14

Felix

Benjispruce5 · 25/07/2021 21:14

Wolf sounds like a wrestling stage name.

Benjispruce5 · 25/07/2021 21:12

Oh ok. Being a Jonah means being unlucky due to the bible story of Jonah and the whale.
