Otto or Rudy?

We’re due baby 3 (keeping it a surprise) and wondering which people prefer between Otto or Rudy? I’ve worked with children for a long old time so it makes it tricky when picking although I’ve never taught an Otto or a Rudy.

If it were my choice entirely I would have Bruno but I’m conscious of the associations with the Sacha Baron Cohen film mainly ( I’m not fussed about it being seen as a dog name as my eldest son has a name typically associated with dogs).

We loved Rex but it sounds too similar to the shortening of my daughter’s name and I think they’d forever be mishearing when I call up the stairs in future so we’ve discounted that.

Thanks in advance.

I think Rudy with Milo, Otto is quite close to Otis. Our cat is Milo and we Otis picked for #2 🤣.

Rudy (Rudie) can't fail. ;)

Cool name.

Otto is WAAAAY better than Rudy. Arlo is good too.
