What comes to mind when you think of a family living in London with two children named Felix and Casper?

Cat and a ghost

I work with a guy called Kazpar, and he has a lovely cat called Felix. I’d think of them!

Cat and a ghost

Lindtnotlint · 01/01/2025 20:13

quite posh. I don’t mind the names at all but together they definitely give a strong ski/Tuscany/private school/nice car kind of vibe.

Covidwoes · 01/01/2025 18:47

Wealthy parents with kids in private school.

dogwlllwalk · 01/01/2025 18:14

Nice names. They are not unusual.

RuthW · 01/01/2025 17:49

I's think.....what lovely names.

Felix is a well known cat food brand in the UK!

Sunnyflow · 01/01/2025 15:42

Actually, if you hadn't posted in baby names, then I'd definitely think cats 🐈

Cats

TwoHoots74 · 01/01/2025 15:20

That you were talking about your cats

CrashThere · 01/01/2025 15:18

My first thought was cats.

I would assume the parents were making a joke about having cats for children. I wouldn’t imagine that anyone would actually name their kids that, unless they were idiots.

So weird. Felix has been popular for a good while, Caspar has been in the last couple years. They aren’t unusual names.

PhilosophicalCheeseSandwich · 01/01/2025 01:02

They'd really wanted cats but settled for children.

Haha

I wouldn’t think anything - they are quite typical middle class-ish names, and v off the moment

Dovestree · 01/01/2025 14:14

Cats! I'd think you were talking about cats, sorry.

Sunnyflow · 01/01/2025 13:53

What a strange question?

What would I think of them depends on their personality and attitude, not their names Confused

BootballJoy · 01/01/2025 11:58

Lovely names, not unusual these days.

Sheeparelooseagain · 01/01/2025 11:24

Yes middle class trendy.

Moreteaandchocolate · 01/01/2025 11:16

A nice family who chose friendly - sounding and fairly “middle class trendy” names for their children. I wouldn’t see that as a negative.

FedUpWithXmasNow · 01/01/2025 10:02

What would you think OP?

BCBird · 01/01/2025 09:21

Don't like names. Parents high earners, with possibly a nanny

MissScarletInTheBallroom · 01/01/2025 09:19

Both lovely names.
