My husband and I have loved this name since conceiving our first son. We really love flower names for boys, Lupin is edgy and unique it also has the more masculine meaning of 'pertaining to the wolf'. Could be shortened to Lu or Louie. We chickened out of using it last time because we got a few negative comments and thought it was a bit TOO unusual but on the other hand it could be paired with a very ordinary middle name that he could use if he preferred when older. I found a post on here from a few years ago with horrendously negative feedback so I'm not expecting much here but I thought I'd put it out there again anyway to test the waters! So what d'ya reckon?

I’d think you are massive and slightly cringy Harry Potter fans. Yes the flowers are lovely, but I think the Harry Potter connection is still way too strong. Lupin is also a common allergen which is off putting to me as well.

You are naming a human being, not a pet.
