I love Oscar as the first name Hawes is the surname. Does it flow?

They sound perfectly fine together.

Hi @DanLenardBennett29

Yes, it flows. Oscar is a lovely name.

Getting technical here, but Oscar only has two syllables and Hawes has just the one. If you are considering middle names as well, perhaps something with a few syllables would work well. For example..

Oscar William Hawes

Ask a whore? Sorry!!

Whatsyourflava · 28/06/2020 10:10

Sounds like a lovely name ❤️

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 28/06/2020 10:28

Sounds like some very very posh saying.
Ask a horse. Grin..Still a cool name, though.

I don't think they flow well. I feel a name ending in a consonant might work better eg
Nathan Hawes
Dominic Hawes
Quentin Hawes

Sound like 'ask a whore' but what can you do?

Ask a horse Grin

Actually it does!

Ask a horse Grin

I can hear ask a horse now, but would never have thought of it if I met someone called Oscar Hawes!! Sounds fine to me.

CuppaZa · 28/06/2020 12:06

I like it.

IsMiseMorag · 28/06/2020 12:19

It sounds like Oscar Whores, ie, desperate starlets, to me (I'm really, really sorry). But this probably isn't something most normal people would hear when they heard the name, so if you really love it, go with it. Most names have some kind if ?!?! factor, if you look hard enough.

Awful. Sorry but your surname doesn't lend itself to Oscar. Having a middle name is irrelevant as it won't be used. I hear 'ask a whores' too
