Boys names- which is your favourite from my selection?

[namesneeded]

Baby due any day now, brother to Charles.

We have narrowed it down to

Dexter
Hugo nn Hugh / Hewie
Caspar
Maximillian nn Max

Surname is very unusual, and starts with a harsh C sound, like cook

Caspar. I like the name, but mostly that he will sound like a superhero.

I don't like Hugo but like the rest. The serial killer put me of Dexter so saving that for a future dog, but I do like the name.

I think Max then Caspar are my favourites.

Oh I think Caspar is awful, a friend has recently named her baby this and I struggled to contain my response. Just so cartoon, friendly ghost can’t be avoided. Rest are fine, really like max but I’d just go with Max, no Maximilian. Is there any situation in his life where you’d want people to actually call him Maximilian?!

Dexter, have always loved it.

Dexter or max (not maximillian) really dislike casper especially with a surname starting with c

Dexter

I like all your choices. I have a lot of Hugh (I love it as a stand-alone name) and Max in my family tree, but Maximillian seems a bit much - maybe Maxim or Maxwell?

I'd normally pooh-pooh (did I spell that right?) Dexter as a surname-as-firstname, but some American friends have a Dexter/Dex, just turning two, and it is definitely the perfect name for that child.

I like Jasper better than Casper - or maybe Casimir/Kasimir?

I Like Maximillian best

I like Caspar and Dexter! Both are classic, cool and not too common.

Max is very common for little boys and dogs!

Hugh is ok.

My votes are either for
Charles & Hugo
Charles & Caspar
I'd go Hugo, you have a Charles and I think the two of them sound nice together.
Caspar is nice as well although I do agree with pp that it makes me think of the ghost I don't think many children will & it's becoming fairly popular (at least where I live) so I doubt the ghost will be what they think of first.

I REALLY LOVE your list!!!

I actually can’t pick- I love all of them 🙈

Hugh

Max

I don’t like Hugo but LOVE the rest

Dexter is my favourite.

Dexter

I really like Maximillian and Caspar.

Dexter

Hugo or Maximillian.

I reeeeeeeeeeally wanted Dexter for my son but my husband poo pooed it 💩
I'm still working on it in case we ever have another boy. Think it's such a gorgeous name

Casper

Any apart from Dexter, it has a different vibe to Charles.

I don't particularly like any of them but with Charles I'd go for Hugo or Max. I don't think dexter is of the same genre of names and Casper is just horrible.

Charles and Hugo!
Or Charles and Caspar!

Do bear in mind you will shout the name 30-40 times a day. Sometimes people don’t think.
