By the way, definitely not Elliott.

Thanks Smile

Elliot, because I always hear Tricia Penrose of Heartbeat saying "Os-kare!!" in my head. But that may just be me.

100% Oscar!

Definitely prefer Elliot - the dragon from Pete's Dragon is called Elliot.

Fridgedooropen · 23/09/2017 16:54

Elliot

PandorasXbox · 23/09/2017 17:09

Oscar.

Hairydilemma · 23/09/2017 17:13

Think you're going to get a 50/50 split here!

I like them both but prefer Elliot (I may be biased...Wink)

ZigAZigAhh · 23/09/2017 17:14

If DD had been a boy we were going to name her Oscar Elliot Smile

loobylou10 · 23/09/2017 17:15

Elliot. I am biased though. Love the name and named my oldest son that (in 1996) after our first date was to see ET back in 1983!

Sophronia · 23/09/2017 19:12

Oscar

17caterpillars1mouse · 23/09/2017 19:37

Oscar

geneveve · 23/09/2017 19:39

Neither

TurquoiseChevrotain · 23/09/2017 19:42

Elliot

@geneveve what's the point?

geneveve · 23/09/2017 19:47

Just my opinion

geneveve · 23/09/2017 19:47

Just my opinion. Op asked.

TurquoiseChevrotain · 23/09/2017 19:51

But they really didn't, did they? They asked which one of the 2. It's like replying Joseph...

geneveve · 23/09/2017 19:56

Then Joseph. I prefer thatSmile

TurquoiseChevrotain · 23/09/2017 20:02

That's says it all. You're missing the point. It's a completely irrelevant reply.

elQuintoConyo · 23/09/2017 20:03

Oscar.

Smelliot would have few friends... Grin

LostwithSawyer · 23/09/2017 22:19

Elliot is much nicer

Montsti · 24/09/2017 07:09

I like both but Elliot sounds a little wet (sorry) so I would go with Oscar...

howthelightgetsin · 24/09/2017 07:31

I have an irrational hatred of the name Elliot.

Oscar.

Normandy144 · 24/09/2017 07:33

Much prefer Elliot. Oscar feels like a name that will date easily to me.

ladybirdsaredotty · 24/09/2017 11:27

Oscar is on our list for this baby but I'm worried about popularity. Elliot(t 😉) would be too but it's too close to DD2's name. I probably like it best of the two, though ☺

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 24/09/2017 13:35

Elliot

FindTheLightSwitchDarren · 24/09/2017 16:26

Oscar
