We’ve pretty much decided 100% on the name Felix for our son. His siblings love it and it matches their names.
I can’t decide between Felix Rupert or
Felix River
We can’t choose between the two middle names mentioned for Felix as we love both options but do not want two middle names.

I like Felix Rupert.

Felix Rupert.

I can’t personally see the appeal of River as a name! Although, it’s not so bad in the middle spot, where I think anything goes really.

I think Felix River edges it for me - although I wouldn’t personally pick River as a first name, I love it for a middle name - cool nature vibes!

Defo Felix River! Love it!

Reminds me of River Phoenix tbh

Felix Rupert. I like River but it's a different style of name. Felix is a great name!

Christmaseason · 11/12/2024 21:39

How about no middle name, neither sound quite right together?

River is a gorgeous first name

Neither goes very well, but Rupert is better than River.
Oliver is nicer.

AdaColeman · 12/12/2024 14:03

Felix Rupert!

River is a completely different style of name from Felix.

NotMyFirstUsername1 · 13/12/2024 12:01

Definitely Felix Rupert - I also agree with PP’s saying that River is a completely different style of name.

timoteigirl · 13/12/2024 18:09

why not both?

marcylosthershoe · 13/12/2024 20:00

Like both but not sure if they go that well with Felix. I do enjoy a bit of Weezer so I think I have to say River😆
