Our baby boy is 2 weeks old and we have named him Louis. I do love his name but can't stop thinking about Milo.

It was always between Milo & Louis for him since we found out we were having a boy. We went for Louis as it as my husband liked it slightly more which swayed me.

Milo is much more unusual, I guess I do worry that Louis is too popular!

Maybe it's my hormones making me crazy?

Is Milo much nicer than Louis?? Should I push to change it?

I prefer Milo.

Milo is bizarre in my opinion! Louis is lovely. Much nicer. But then again I'm a traditionalist.

milo is a drihk, not a name. stick with louis.

A wise person once said that if you are agonising between two choices neither is wrong. They are both great names so would make peace with it if I were you Grin

I wonder if a wiser person would say that if you are agonising between two choices, neither is right?

But that's an aside, I still think Louis is a wonderful choice in this instance (and Milo is awful)

Louis is a beautiful name. I know quite a few babies called Milo so it seems quite popular. It makes me think of the Tweenies as well, not good.

privategodfrey · 22/02/2011 21:22

Definitely Louis.

Milo = Tweenies
