Views please. Is on our short long list and ranks about equal with everything else on the list but DS1 (age 4.5) is insistent that's what he wants to call his baby brother. Generally good reaction from most we've mentioned it to althou my mum said it sounds like an icecream...

Great name!

Lovely name. Ive never met one but in my mind Magnus would be strong, articulate and have a wicked sense of humour.

Love it - was on my list!

Suggested it on another MNer's thread today so yes, brilliant!

The Magnus I know is a member of the Norwegian army and regularly chops down trees and eats reindeer.

I love the name! So manly.

der der der der DER der (am doing the mastermind music if you were wondering) Apart from Opus nothing else springs to mind.

Except Mags is a really cool nn (I admit it, I was a huge A-HA fan)
And I think it is really really sweet to let his brother help choose Smile
