What name is more pretentious/posh? Hugo or Oliver?

Thanks!

Neither of them feel posh to me anymore as they are so popular in my area. I would have previously said Hugo sounded posher, though

Hugo by a country mile

Hugo, definitely.

Hugo

Hugo, definitely. Oliver has become quite mainstream.

Hugo

Neither of them are pretentious imo.
Hugo is 'posher'

Hugo used to be very posh. It's not any more. Lot's of people have picked up on the name because of Hugo Boss and they are definitely not posh. It's still a nice name though. Oliver is posh if you are over 40, not at all posh if you are under 25.

I have a Hugo. I would say we are middle class, we just chose it because it’s a nice name.

Hugo

Hugo by far. Oliver is pretty common in terms of how many children are named it.

Hugo is posher but I wouldn’t call either of them pretentious. Just normal names.

Hugo

Hugo. Oliver was the most popular name for at least six years in a row so there are tens of thousands of them (a least two a class in our primary which is very mixed in terms of intake from different social areas). Hugo still fairly posh I’d imagine, I don’t think it’s pretentious though?

Hugo

A name is only posh or pretentious if you like to stereotype.
Usually a form of othering in a precursor to bullying.
Are you a bully?

I would never have considered Oliver 'posh'.

You wouldnt find either round where I live!

Yep, agree with pp. Oliver is the new John but Hugo is still posh and pretentious. If you want to go a bit further, why not go with Peregrine .

Hugo posher than Oliver.

Yep, agree with pp. Oliver is the new John but Hugo is still posh and pretentious. If you want to go a bit further, why not go with Peregrine

Or John.

Hugo definitely although even that is not particularly posh . Oliver is very mainstream normal like Sebastian.

How about Tarquin?

Though my iPad suggests Tarquinius! 😁👍
