Which do you prefer from Archie, Stanley (Stan) or Sidney (Sid)? Sibling is Felix.

Choosing from your names it would be Archibald / Archie. I think with Felix Jasper Oscar, Caspar and Oliver go best. Smile

Archie by a million miles.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 04/07/2017 16:59

Archer (Archie) and Felix.

ButterflyOfFreedom · 04/07/2017 17:11

Archie goes best with Felix but I actually prefer Stanley.

chowmeinchick · 04/07/2017 17:13

I've just had a Stanley, so I'd obviously say that's the best 😉

Susiethetortoiseshellcat · 04/07/2017 17:17

Stanley.

17caterpillars1mouse · 04/07/2017 17:19

Oh I love Sidney. Stanley is nice too

Sophronia · 04/07/2017 18:17

Sidney is great

auntym · 04/07/2017 19:12

Sid

jumpybluespider · 04/07/2017 19:22

Love Sid but Felix goes best with Archie.

KarineAimee · 04/07/2017 20:27

Stanley, congratulations!

Sandsnake · 04/07/2017 21:23

Archie, at a push. Then Stanley. Really, really dislike Sidney, sorry. For some reason in my head Sid has always been a really shifty looking man with a fag hanging out of his mouth... Entirely irrational, I'm sure!

sonlypuppyfat · 04/07/2017 21:25

Felix is lovely and I don't think it goes with the old man names you've picked, I really don't like them

CrystalMethHog · 04/07/2017 21:32

Stanley!!

SuperBeagle · 04/07/2017 21:59

I love Stanley and Sidney.

I'd probably choose Stanley.

auntym · 05/07/2017 08:49

Thanks everyone. What other boys names would you say go better with Felix?

I'm not being factious but does the name have to 'go' with Felix? They'll be a sib set for such a short period in their life. Mostly they'll be independent adults, living seperate lives. Ok, it might be a bit strange if you have Felix and Vegus or something, but even then it would be the end of the world.

Why not just pick a name you like and which suits him?

Out of your list, I think Sid is quite sweet and also works for a grown man.

Lemondrop99 · 05/07/2017 09:02

*wouldn't

auntym · 05/07/2017 10:12

Lemon I agree the names don't have to be overly "matchy" but I refer a similar style name if possible.. Other suggestions would be great!

Archie😊

Drybonesthatdream · 05/07/2017 11:03

I love Sid or Stanley. Archie is a bit too common for me.

FruitTwist2017 · 05/07/2017 11:03

Archie

RiverTam · 05/07/2017 11:04

Sid. I quite like Stan but it reminds me of the Eminem song.
