I like Milo best out of the boy's names, but if I met a little boy with any of the other names I think I'd find them all unusual and nice.

Beatrix is great. I like Beatrice too. I'm really taken with Zinnia. I think of the flower and it works well as a name. It's fresh and pretty and Z is a nice initial! I'm not keen on Mina because of it sounding like meaner.

I like Austin and Milo but not the other two boys' names.
Quite like Beatrix,
don't really like Zinnia
Mina is ok

I like Austin a lot.

I don't like any of the others at all, sorry.

Austin- reminds me of Texas but I don’t hate it
Milo- trendy and dog name, a bit soft
Leander- love this. Could nn Leo.
Evander- love this too. Could be Evan or Evo

Beatrix- I should love this name but don’t really like Bea. I like Trixie though.
Zinnia- like this
Mina- a bit blah compared to others and hit similar to Mia, Mila, Maya etc

As you asked for honesty... a bit try hard

Beatrix is a beautiful and very cool name. Leander and Evander are great boy's names! Milo is very cute but maybe a little popular these days.

Flutterflybutterby · 16/01/2022 06:22

Zinnia is a flower, right? It's nice. A bit different.

KiloWhat · 16/01/2022 10:32

Austin - Texas
Milo - a dog
Leander - lee-ander? Hate it.
Evander - even worse.

Beatrix - Potter, dislike as a name
Zinnia - actually kind of like it
Mina - my favourite but prefer Nina

Fivebeanchilli · 16/01/2022 10:36

Austin - this has grown on me since I met a delightful one
Milo - I like this a lot
Leander - is ok. I can think of nicer names that are similar - Lysander for insurance. Or Leon.
Evander- don't like it at all. Just reminds me of the boxer

Beatrix - gorgeous
Zinnia - unusual but I think I quite like it
Mina - don't like this at all

FayCarew · 16/01/2022 11:34

Austin - Austin Powers, Austin Healey
Milo - too trendy, powedered milk drink
Leander - not sure
Evander - Holyfield
