Bertie or Oscar?????

[rosedevine]

My boyfriend and I just can't choose between the names Bertie and Oscar for our baby boy! Help!!!

Oscar definitely, very cute name. I am not too keen on Bertie.

Oscar is nice, it suits all ages well.

I agree that Bertie is cute and works great for a baby and an older man but i'd have to find a longer name I liked for the middle years. I think I'd choose Albert. I still prefer Oscar though.

Oscar. Bertie is horrible.

Oscar

Bertie! There are enough Oscars already.

Oscar for me but I'm biased

Oscar.

Really don't like Bertie, maybe fine for a squishy lovely baby but not an adult imo. So, Oscar wins by default for me

Bertie (Albert on BC for me). There are so many young Oscars around here.

Oscar by a country mile...and I'm not really a fan of the name Oscar. But Bertie is a dreadful name...I can't take it seriously.

Not Oscar. But Bertie is a nickname. It's like Alfie or Percy...

I like Bertie. Agree about too many Oscars.

I don't think I could yell 'BERTIE' across a busy park and not cringe a little. So it would have to be Oscar for me.

I love them both but Bertie has the edge. Bertie short for Gilbert.

Bertie as a nn for Cuthbert :)

Bertie.

Oscar is very overused imo.

Oscar

I love Oscar for a boy! Just wish my OH did :-/

I prefer Bertie, but only as a nickname. Oscar was always my favourite name but it's just too popular these days.

I think Albert, Bertram, Robert or Gilbert are nice as long versions.

Oscar. I just can't imagine a teenage or adult Bertie.

Too many oscars here and I always think "Oscar the grouch"

Love that Bertie can be short for lots of other things.
