Axel

One of my all time favourites (currently ttc baby 3).

Is it about to have a popularity explosion because Perri Edwards named her baby Axel? Not sure how I feel about it being trendy but I do really love it - big Guns n Roses fan but prefer this spelling.

Alternative suggestions welcome too :)

@Jumpingintosummer and she’s a singer which made me jump to conclusions! But Neilsfavouritechilli has already explained

It's a lovely name, stick with it for sure

If anything little mix using name might put people off using it and it could fall in charts (Louis went down in charts when royals picked it and I think Wilfred will do the same because of Boris)

What’s it an anagram of?
Oral sex

My OH loves the name Axel but I just couldn't get my head around it

Every time I say Axel I hear Rose it also seems like a big name to pull off

Ah ok, but you need the rose bit for that
