I love Remy!
I had a super hot french dive instructor with that name and I thought it was so cool!

DeadDonkey · 16/11/2022 07:52

Edward or Francis are the only two that I like.

Orlando and Felix are great names for a cat.

I'm not keen Remy, Lazlo or Lorenzo, but they'd be ok if you had links to those countries. Although Lorenzo reminds me of the film Lorenzo's Oil - but then I am probably a bit older than you!

Oslo I don't think of as a name.

AdaColeman · 16/11/2022 07:55

Felix and Laszlo are my favourites.

I'm not at all keen on Oslo. That's a very nice short list.

Lots of luck on Friday! Bear Bear Bear

NooNakedJacuzziness · 16/11/2022 07:57

Edward - you've then got the options of Ed, Eddie, Ted and Teddy to shorten it to

Hobbesmanc · 16/11/2022 08:02

Remy is great as is felix. I love Frank as a nickname for Francis. Not so keen on Fran or Franny which I've come across in the North West quite a lot.

Edward is popular. But Teddy is such a sweet diminutive. Maybe Edmund?

Smallonesaremorejuicy · 16/11/2022 08:06

Edward 💙 Francis is nice , he can also be called/call himself Frank . Best wishes for your section 💐

2greenroses · 16/11/2022 08:08

Edward! Francis is nice too- Felix is way to common now

KirstenBlest · 16/11/2022 08:21

Seems to be a mix of very different names. Not sure if Oslo is a name

Mumofgirls2017 · 16/11/2022 08:29

Remy- like
Francis- dated
Orlando- love
Oslo- like
Felix- ok
Lorenzo- ok
Laszlo- ok
Edward- like

VenusClapTrap · 16/11/2022 15:28

Laszlo is fabulous!

I like Francis and Orlando a lot.

Season0fTheWitch · 16/11/2022 15:34

Edward or Francis.

Remy reminds me of ratatouille

ShesThunderstorms · 16/11/2022 15:36

Felix. Or Remy but I like it spelled Remi. Is that a bit feminine though?

pinkpotatoez · 16/11/2022 15:40

Remy

Agreed Remi looks better than Remy to me

fairycupcakes · 16/11/2022 15:43

If your favourites are Francis and Remy I would suggest waiting until you meet him to see what he looks like to you ☺️ Good luck! I hope all goes well @LittleMrsMama

Gummibär · 16/11/2022 15:49

Nooo Rémy is much nicer!

TaraRhu · 16/11/2022 16:07

Remy

custardbear · 16/11/2022 21:00

I love felix but also quite like Oslo - enjoy your newbie when he arrives

mathanxiety · 16/11/2022 22:52

In order:

Laszlo - lovely
Remy - lovely
Francis - lovely
Felix - lovely

Lorenzo - Nice
Orlando - OK, reminds me of Disney though.
Edward - a bit bland and predictable.
Oslo - No, Norway's capital, and also too close to Onslow from Keeping Up Appearances.

FearofQueefing · 17/11/2022 20:06

Felix or Edward

Really don't like any of the others

LulooLemon · 17/11/2022 22:03
  1. Edward
  1. Remy
  1. Francis
  1. Felix

Let us know what you choose!

PritiPatelsMaker · 17/11/2022 22:15

Just want to wish you all the best for tomorrowWinkFlowers

AllyCatTown · 18/11/2022 07:43

I really like Laszlo but I do think it’s hard to pull off if no cultural connections
