Felix and Casper? What would you think?

[Sunflowers1999]

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

Cats

Pretentious

@Twitwootoo pretentious because?

Felix cat advert with the great Northern soul record..
Reuben.. you've been away.

First thought was …cats but upon reflection I might wonder if mum or dad were Scandi or German? Often watch euro TV series (Nordic Noir or the German equivalent) and they’re common names there 🤷🏻‍♀️

Casper, was it a ghost?

They are mummy and daddy to two "fur babies".

This was the first thought that came into my mind 🤣🤣🤣

Living in a flat where the slumlord doesn't allow pets so they had to give the names to their kids.

Felix, I can only think of cats. I don't particularly like the sound of the name either. I think it's the "feel" sound I don't like.

Caspar, one of my favourite boys names, regardless of popularity - it's popular for good reason. I don't think pets or friendly ghosts, to me it's a strong biblical name - Caspar was one of the three magi/wise men.

I’d think you were Danish

Pretty common in the Scandi countries - don't think we got through a school year without a Felix in the class and at least one Casper/Kasper in the year groups.

Also numerous variations of Oscar/Oskar and Åskar

Felix the cat and Casper the ghost

Felix reminds me of Germany, Casper reminds me of Poland.

Don't know if I should know this automatically, but are you asking because you want to name your second child Casper, or because you know a family like this and are madly judging?!

As it's written, I'd think cat food commercial.

If I was introduced to everyone in person, I'd probably not think about it past "sounds about right" or "I did NOT see that coming!" depending on my initial expectations/ how judgy pants I was being that day 😊

A cat and a ghost.

I'd think: nice names.

100% I would think they were “parents” to 2 spoilt cats! 🐈 🐈‍⬛

Ditto. Would make me think you were fans of vintage cartoons.

Fire Emblem geeks.

I would think you were mistaken, and told me the names of the cats instead of the kids.

I actually know a couple whose children are called Felix and Caspar!

They are quite well off, the boys go to private school. Mum drives a huge 4x4. Very right wing, Dad voted for Brexit. Not sure about Mum.

This! Separately they would be fine but together definitely sound like cats.

Caspar means dandruff in Spanish

Cats as well

Same as Bella I imm think of a cat
