Felix or Jasper?

[thisnamethatname]

Week old baby boy can't decide on his name, siblings are Cecelia and Owen.

Choosing now between Felix or Jasper, I know some people consider them to be pets names or whatever but that doesn't bother me.

Middle name will be Thomas and our surname is long and double barrelled starting with an L.

I like both. Overall though I’d probably err on the side of Jasper to avoid the cat food association.

Felix

As a sibling set, I think Jasper goes best. Mainly because Cecelia and Felix both have the same “eli” sound.

That might sound like weird logic but there you go!

Love them both.

This is the exact reason I'm hesitating on Felix! I feel like the nicknames would be too similar sounding, We call her Ce lots and I feel like I would end up calling him Fe and it would just be too similar

These were both in our top 3 names, and loved them both equally. We went with the third choice in the end, but if we ever miraculously had another son, I think we’d use Jasper.

Jasper goes well with Owen (Jasper was the son of Owen Tudor).

Jasper is a dogs name. Sorry

Felix won't work with a surname beginning with L. Too many L sounds together.

Jasper, for sure. Nice name.

Both lovely names. One is going to be my DS name, one is my lovely friend’s DS name.

My older DS also has a name that was considered a pet name on mumsnet and it has never been mentioned in real life!

Jasper. On its own and it also works perfectly with the siblings names (not that that matters in the long run but it just feels perfect).

Jasper

Felix does say cat to me, and the only human one I know is a head wrecking fucker.

Also Jasper is a rather lovely red quartz

Also agree Cecilia and Felix are too similar

Celelia, Owen and ..
Jasper Thomas Lxxxxxx
or
Thomas Jasper Lxxxxxx

It would be Jasper Thomas

Thomas is DBIL and also DH best mates name so getting double points for honouring both of them in one middle name 😅

Jasper fits best I think.

Love Jasper.

Felix is a saint.Jasper is a rock

Both are great names, but I think Jasper with Thomas as Felix also ends with an s sound.

Felix

Definitely Jasper! Felix is also cute, in fact I may even prefer it. However, Jasper Thomas has a better ring to it and goes with the siblings.

Jasper

Felix - lovely name
