Expecting our second son next week! We've really struggled to choose a name for him but have got it down to a top 5.

Wanted something not too popular but not too out-there! He will be little brother to Jensen.

Which name should we go for? And what are your thoughts on them all?

I would go Felix or Jude (love Jude but would probably sway towards Felix because otherwise they’ll both have J names, but that might not bother you)

I’m not keen on the rest I’m afraid but that’s just personal opinion. Brody is very American sounding, not keen on Dylan and don’t think it goes with Jenson, and I’ve never heard of Jago but not really a fan!

I'd choose Felix, purely because the other names aren't really my taste.

Jude or Jago - both great
Dylan is Ok
Felix is ok, I just have irrational dislike for it
Not Brody though, it just sounds made up and low rent

Brody..
After chief Brody in Jaws!!
Jago is a weird ghost in a kid's book!
Felix is a cat
Dylan is from The Magic Roundabout
Jude is wishy washy
Sorry op!

Jude is my fave but two J names as siblings would confuse my already muddled mothers brain Grin
Brody sounds lovely and goes well with Jensen (love that name)
Felix makes me think of cat food. Dylan is nice but not as unusual as Jensen. Jago will involve him having to pronounce his name for people for the rest of his days😂

I like Brody the best and I think it goes well with Jensen.

Jude

Arrierttyclock · 06/05/2021 20:16

Felix or Jude. I slightly prefer Felix

Happenchance · 06/05/2021 20:17

I prefer Jago

CthulhuChristmas · 06/05/2021 20:17

I love Felix and don't like Brody. The others are all okay.

SomeCatsLikeCheese · 06/05/2021 20:17

Felix!

TheBeautifulSouth44 · 06/05/2021 20:18

Jude

Chicchicchicchiclana · 06/05/2021 20:18

Jude. I really don't like any of the others, sorry.

StiggyZardust · 06/05/2021 20:18

What about Bodhi instead of Brody?

Joolsin · 06/05/2021 20:19

Jago or Brody

romdowa · 06/05/2021 20:19

Jude or felix go best with your older dcs name.

itssquidstella · 06/05/2021 20:20

Jude or Jago.

Felix is okay; Dylan is objectively fine but I don't like it; Brody is awful.

Twinkie01 · 06/05/2021 20:21

They're all nice except Brody which I think is awful.

Hazel444 · 06/05/2021 20:26

Felix or Dylan have the same kind of vibe as Jensen.

DramaAlpaca · 06/05/2021 20:27

Dylan or Jude.

angelaEhen · 06/05/2021 20:32

Dylan, I think you should avoid another j name

Amdone123 · 06/05/2021 20:34

I like Brody, it goes well with Jensen. Same vibe. Felix - cat name. Dylan - dated. Jago - ok, but 2 J names so no. Jude - so many, and again same initial, so no.

Susie477 · 06/05/2021 20:36

Brody sounds American, and not in a good way.

Felix is cool.

Dylan & Jude are fine.

I’m not so keen on Jago.

Thisnamewasnttaken123 · 06/05/2021 20:38

Felix always reminds me of a cat sorry.

Stevearnottsbeard · 06/05/2021 20:44

Only like dylan
