Ooh I like them all actually but Luke is my favourite.

TopsOff · 26/05/2017 22:19

It seems like Felix just has the lead. I think my top two are Felix and Arthur but Luke keeps refusing to be dismissed. I'm not as keen on Alexander but DH loves it.

Felix
Luke
Arthur

And I have S dad alike of Alexander so I'm not going to even put it there, lol. I know it's very popular though.

PlymouthMaid1 · 27/05/2017 08:55

All nice names but I vote for Felix

Sandsnake · 27/05/2017 08:56

I'd go with Alexander Arthur. His initials could then be AA Surname, which is great if he's a writer / sportsman etc...

user1482079332 · 27/05/2017 09:00

All lovely names Alex felix Arthur Luke

BeanSprout79 · 27/05/2017 09:04

Luke and Alexander

MrsMills · 01/06/2017 13:28

Totally biased, and of no use to you whatsoever, but I have an Alexander and a Luke and my dad is Francis.
3 great names.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 01/06/2017 13:30

Luke. Simple, strong and, imho, underused.

MrsMills · 01/06/2017 13:30

Missed a bit - my Dad is Felix Francis!

Rockaby · 01/06/2017 14:08

I don't think Luke is underused... I know three under 5yo boys named Luke.

MammieBear · 01/06/2017 15:55

Alexander there are so many but you have lots of nickname possibilities, however if he's not keen on the others he's stuck really.

NoncommittalToSparkleMotion · 01/06/2017 15:58

Felix

Mothervulva · 01/06/2017 16:00

Felix

CPtart · 01/06/2017 16:11

Luke. I have one and he is one of five in his year (aged 12) so not under-used here but still my preference.
Then Alexander.
Don't like the others.

Berrybakecake1 · 01/06/2017 16:19

Alexander but I'm biased because I have one Grin

Lobsterquadrille2 · 01/06/2017 17:06

Definitely Felix for me. Not keen on Luke but I know two boys called Luca and both are lovely. Alexander is always going to be Alex. Arthur would be my second choice of the four.

Ontopofthesunset · 01/06/2017 17:11

My order of preference:

Alexander
Felix
Luke
Arthur

vitaminC · 01/06/2017 17:13

I like Arthur, Alexander and Felix equally.

Not keen on Luke, although I love the French version Luc (I live in France). Not sure why though. I also like Lucien or Lucian.

spankhurst · 01/06/2017 17:17

Alexander, then Luke. Don't like Felix as it's so strongly associated in my head with cats. Arthur is not great although I like Arty.

Emma2803 · 01/06/2017 18:05

Luke is my favourite, thinking of using if dc2 is a boy. Felix is second. Arthur and Alexander joint last. For me Alexander is way too fussy and snooty. Arthur is too much of an old man name I think.

Amethistle · 01/06/2017 20:36

Felix

UsaNayme · 02/06/2017 12:31

Luke

Then: Alexander, Arthur, Felix. In that order.
But I love Arthur and can't use it, so I might just be bitterly pushing it down

Redpramlady · 03/06/2017 10:11

Luke as it's underused
Second alexander
Arthur
Felix ... can't get the cat out my mind
