Felix!

Henry - more classic and also has obvious nn options if he happens to want them when older (Hal/Harry). Felix is nice enough but has become more trendy in the last 10/15 years.

The accidental 'of' instead of 'or' made this sound like their name would be 'Sir Henry of Felix' and I thought it was a peak MN version of Balonz 😂
Same. Arise, Sir Henry of Felix!

Felix is great, btw.

Henry, by a long way.

Love Henry, struggle to get on board with Felix.

I love both but Henry would be my first choice. You can't go wrong either way though.

Felix, 100% …. Henry is a lovely name but there are loads of Henry’s!

I'd say Henry as a favourite, but only by an inch. They are both great names.
