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

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)
