We've had some great help narrowing down our shortlist here and now are just stuck between these two names for baby boy. Not worried about a middle name, just want a first name that is the right one. Any thoughts about Arlo or Kit??

I like Kit for a small person - have never known a grown up one. Not sure how it sounds on a grown up.

I prefer Arlo. Unless you're in Essex...?

i really dislike both names im afraid! kit is a little bit better than Arlo

I love Kit, I would definitely consider registering his name as Christopher, Christian, Christoph etc... so that he has the choice when he's older Arlo is awful I'm afraid. x

I think they are both lovely names. I have a slight preference for Arlo.

I thought the thread title was Aero or KitKat for a minute. I am clearly in need of some chocolate!

To answer the actual thread title, I much prefer Arlo

Kit as a nickname for Christopher etc
I know a grown up Kit and one child and it suits both.
