I have now been struggling to choose between these boys names for weeks. Going slowly but definetely mad. I've been waking up every morning with these names going round and round in my head. I have niggling doubts for each but I AM happy that this is the final shortlist.

My dd1 is Grace. So, go on, please put me out of my misery! Which of these would you choose for Grace's little brother and why?

Felix
Louis (pronounced Loo-ee)
Oscar

oscar or felix are great

really not keen on louis especially with your pronunciation

and you'd have to keep correcting everyone

Felix

I'd choose Felix, simply because there are so many Oscars and Louis in this neck of the woods. Unless (seriously) there was a family history of depression, in which case calling the boy Happy may just add to potential future problems. Don't be deterred by people banging on about cat food!

I have a Grace and her brother is Patrick. I think they go together brilliantly.

From your list I would probably pick Felix. I think.

Felix but because I have a Felix!

oscar is lovely and would have named my son oscar if it wasn't for our cat having the same name already and the possible problems that might have caused!!
