Loris for a boy

[user1473602935]

Is this a nice name or a bit wet? I'd really like something a little bit unusual / less common but really struggling

Like... the slow loris?

Cute animal but nickname potential bad, I would say.

Too much potential for teasing (slow loris) for my liking, sorry.

Nn at school likely to be Doris. .

Wasn't this a character on GoT too?

Immediately think of the animal so I wouldn't

I think of the animal too. It's not a good association, although it is cute.

I know a Loris: she's a girl.

It's a shame about the 'slow' connection as it is a nice name.

Other unusual names that start with Lor- or end in -ris:

Lorand
Lorcan
Joris
Emris
Harris
Idris
Ferris

It sounds like a girl's name to me, but I've never met one. I'd soon get used to it if I knew one in real life.

I think I'd assume it was a girl. Like Doris.

Slow Loris 😂.

Not good, sorry OP.

Not a good name. Sounds like Doris. its an animal. It doesn't work.

I actually know a really nice young man named Loris...
But the slow connection.

What about Lorenzo/Lorenz nn Loris?

If you're a Spurs fan and you're going to double the L- yes. If you're not- no.

PS The Spurs goalkeeper is called Hugo Lloris!

Slow loris?

I know a lovely boy named Loris so I like the name because of him.

If we had another child and let DS2 name him he would go for Loris, if we had twins he would call them Loris and Fossa, he's obsessed with animals from Madagascar.

Another "slow" from me.

How about Linus?
