Benjamin and Fergus

Do you think Benjamin and Fergus go together as a sibset? Or is one too popular and the other too unusual? Your opinions please - won't take offence!

No idea of which of the two is popular, I like Fergus but don't really like Benjamin. I do like Benedict though.

I really like Benjamin, will be my sons name any day now (overdue), not as sure about Fergus, other name we have is James so our son will be Benjamin James. But it's what you like that counts, so if you like Benjamin and Fergus i'd go for it,sounds fine as a sib set to me Xmas Smile

I'm afraid Fergus makes me think of Fungus the Bogeyman! Probably just me though.

I also prefer Benedict to Benjamin.

Sorry.

I have a Benjamin and really like Fergus, considering for DS2. We are in Scotland so Fergus is not too unusual here - I know a couple of toddlers called Fergus. It obviously sounds fine to me!
