Only 15 weeks, bt really struggling. Was liking Finn, but just not sure. My favourite girls name was Cecily but DH has declared it poncey and pretentious knobhead. I am now liking Kitty for a girl and Felix for a boy. Is Felix just too........feline? . Is everyone always going to think of the cat food or is it just a twats name?

Heeeeeeeeelllllppppp

I like it but it would clash with my surname.

I thought "cat" - sorry.

Cecily is lovely.

I love Felix. My DH has very strongly vetoed it though. He says its a cat's name. I know a Felix though and no-one associates him with cat food, I think its a cool name. I wouldn't go for siblings called Kitty and Felix though!

it means happy - not lucky (from the Latin)

I don't like it at all I'm afraid - I know one and he is not the a good role model

(I also used to have a cat called Felix!)

I wouldn't but admire it on anyone else's child

southeastastra · 18/02/2009 22:03

i would think of felix the cat all the time

suwoo · 18/02/2009 22:03

Well lucky is very apt for this one.
