Boys names with an X in them?

I really seem to be drawn to names with Xs in them. I really like, none have 'the one' feeling about them. Any other suggestions, I don't like Alex or Xavier if that helps, and unfortunately Baxter is a rather important teddy bear in our house.

I vote Knox. A child I am close to has it - it's not very common but it's just a great name

Loxley

I love this name!

OlennasWimple · 04/08/2016 23:12

I don't understand how you are both drawn to names with X in but also don't feel strongly about any of them

seahorse106 · 04/08/2016 23:23

I've always loved the name Xavier but only with the french pronunciation.
And my horse is called Axel so that's obviously very cool lol

Wimple I do really love Baxter, but that's DS's oldest teddy and couldn't really name another son after first sons teddy. Although we have a large family it's all immediate family so I really want to avoid duplicates like Maxwell or Jaxx, which is such a shame as I really love Jaxx or Jax it's so close to a classic but different.

DH just doesn't want Felix, which is such a shame as I thought that was the one - we are the crazy cat people, DH thinks that it would be odd and weird to have 10 cats none with particularly cat like names, to then name a child such an obvious 'cat name'

I really love Lennox, but DH says it is too close to Lennon (one of our cats)
