I’m sorry but all of these names…. Wow.

You must live somewhere quite pleasant and accepting of such names because if I shouted Ottilie, Ptolemy, Quentin, Maximus or Augustus in our school playground, I’d probably get laughed out the school yard

And we live in a nice quaint rural
village

Surely, it’s not just me that thinks you could just use a nice normal name that doesn’t invite an option for bullies in later life?! 🤷‍♀️

Max (Maximus) and Tilly (Ottilie) are very mainstream. If people are laughing at those they need to get out a bit more. Perhaps the village is too small and too rural. Small minds and all that.

Ottilie is fine, it’s well within the top 100 girls names so would pair perfectly fine with any popular boys name. I’m not sure what’s with all the random suggestions that sound like parody private school names, do people really name their babies Ptolemy or Ambrose.

Imagine the poor OP having to shout 'Ottilie and Ptolemy' across the playground! It's like a tongue twister!

My first instinct was Sam. Ottilie and Sam.

I know an Ottilie with a brother Freddie.

Other ideas - Jasper, Miles, Jude, Rowan, Rafe, Finn

anotherwordforit · 10/07/2025 23:12

Ottilie is in the top 100 girls names in the UK and rising so I think it will pair well with most top 100 boys names. Definitely not something like Ptolemy 😵‍💫
