Felix, Hector, Arthur, Otto, Arlo

[pygmy]

Had decided on Hector, but having the usual wobbles.

Arthur is my DS2's middle name, so not sure it's usable and DS1 is called Finn; not sure if Finn and Felix are too much.

Thoughts on all the above names please!

I love Otto. Was one of our choices for a boy.

Hector is cool too but my DS would call it Hec as a nn!!

Felix - nice, you will get some raised eyebrows but it is actually becoming quite popular
Hector - nice
Arthur - best in your list, a bit of a lack of foresight if it is also DS2 middle name but no one will remember so not really an issue!
Otto - very European. just think of Anne Franks dad
Arlo - OK, but a bit too trendy for me.

Finn and Felix are a bit too close, not just because of the F but also the 'i' sound

Try also Frank, Rufus, Hugo, Robert,

Hector is by far the nicest name of the bunch, but they're all good! Arlo and Felix are more popular sounding I think, I know a couple of both. If I was you, I'd definitely go for Hector!

Otto and Arlo for me, Felix is very popular in our school but I can not help visualising a cat.

Felix - very well known catfood in UK. I'd also avoid Finn and Felix for brothers - can get confusing with mail etc.
Hector - meaning (bully, tormentor) would put me off, as well as the lack of nicknames (Heck?)
Arthur - nice
Otto - awful and comical, as well as being Europe's largest mail order company (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_GmbH)
Arlo - nice but sounds a little like Harlow.

I like the suggestion of Hugo or how about Quentin?

Felix - a very nice, classic name
Hector - OK
Arthur - a bit old-man-faddy
Otto - very trendy, you never heard of any Ottos until very recently and now there are lots
Arlo - quite nice

How about Tristan, Jago, Albert, Henry, Frederick/Freddie?

I LOVE Arlo.

Love Felix, Arthur and Arlo.
Arlo is our current favourite if this little bump is a ds3.

Felix - nice, fairly popular but not overly so
Hector - dislike meaning, and always sounds harsh to me
Arthur - lovely, currently popular, but more classic than some of the others so feels less faddy
Otto - like it, possibly becoming popular but haven't met any (yet!)
Arlo - way too trendy at the moment. I know loads (mostly wannabe hipsters!) Plus Harlow connection would put me off.

I love, love,love Arlo - suggested it for our son, but DH refused to believe it was an actual name :/ Harlow similarity wouldn't put me up or down, but I live at the opp. end of the country!

um - they all sound very middle-class-media parents to me (which is possibly what you are!). And this is exactly the kind of area I live in and there are at least 3 of these names in DD's nursery class. Arthur is the nicest (though I don't think you can use it if it's your DS's middle name), the others all sound like they are trying to hard.

Sorry!

Hector is the best. I would avoid the same initial as a sibling, so no Finn/Felix.

What about:
Milo
Rollo
Arne
Corin
Florian
Cole

I think Finn and Arlo go well, both being modern.

Sorry, being modern as in having a modern feel.

Arthur is nice but a no due to other DS.
Felix is quite popular and I only know spoiled, badly behaved ones!
Otto just reminds me of the pot head bus driver from The Simpsons.
Arlo and Hector are ok but I'd be very careful based on you and your wider families/associates accents. If you are in an "H" dropping area, Arlo sounds like Harlow being said wrongly, and Hector will be Ector, or even worse Ectah.
I think Bassington made very good alternative suggestions.

I love Rufus and Hugo but can't use them unfortunately.

I'm not worried about the H being dropped in Hector as there are tonnes of Harrys here and I've never heard them being called 'arry.

Arlo is my DS's name and I LOVE it.
It's a brilliant name

For DC3 we are considering (In no particular order):

Rufus
Jude
Xavier
Atticus
Rafe
Otis
Clement (Clem)
Idris

Oh we've never met another,and we are in no way 'try hard' people...or middle class media types...we just really liked the name.

Otto

What about

Evan

or

Asa?

Love Hector. Not v fond of the others but only actively dislike Felix.

You night also like: Asher / Inigo / Ellis / Oscar

Oo I like Asher! Shame there's no more planned.

I like Asa too

Sorry, not keen on any of those suggestions. I'm really not enjoying this naming business.
