What comes to mind when you think of a family living in London with two children named Felix and Casper?

They'd really wanted cats but settled for children.

Pretentious intellectuals

This. Thought of cats immediately.

The ad for Felix cat food!

That the children had lovely names.

They love tall European back packers.

Doubt we’d be friends

Middle class cliché

Felix reminds me of cats.

TitusMoan · 01/01/2025 01:14

…that Dad is an investment banker and Mum is a stay at home gym bunny mother

Sorry, I know a lot of these people…

Felix the cat and his dog brother Casper

A bit posh & private school. But I like both names !

Yes, this^ or that mum and dad were naming their children after their favourite cartoons: Felix the cat and Casper the ghost

HarelessMiffy · 01/01/2025 01:30

I'd be confused as to whether they were children or cats.

SugarPlumpFairyCakes · 01/01/2025 01:38

Great combo.

SugarPlumpFairyCakes · 01/01/2025 01:39

I'd spell it Caspar tho

TenderChicken · 01/01/2025 01:40

Absolutely cats.

DelphiniumBlue · 01/01/2025 01:40

I think we’ve got a Caspar in almost every class in my London primary. Felix is not particularly unusual either. I wouldn’t give either name a second thought.

THIS!😂

Oceangrey · 01/01/2025 01:42

Normal names
Would assume white British and that's about it

standardduck · 01/01/2025 01:42

Cats and ghosts

WildCats24 · 01/01/2025 01:42

That they rent a chalet in Verbier every year “for the ski season.”

I'm inclined to agree.
