Louis or Theo

[Nugget15]

Due date fast approaching and cannot decide on a name.
please help!

Both are lovely!

Theo

Louis

Louis as long as it's spelled that way.
Theo's fine but the 'th' may be pronounced 'f' by some people which would put me off.
Both nice names.

I love Louis - so long as it's pronounced 'loo-ee', not the same as Lewis.

I don't mind Theo but I feel it should be short for Theodore, and also it's had such a surge of popularity recently, for a name that used to be rare, that I predict it might feel dated in the future.

Theo! I don’t like Louis at all. Both are popular.

Theo..
Never can tell which way to say the other one.

Ds has Lewis as his mn. No mistakes then..

Is it Lewis or Looee?

Both are nice. I slightly prefer Louis as I dislike when Theo becomes Feo in some accents.

Theo. I really don’t like Louis.

It will be pronounced Lou-ee.
we may use the spelling Louie if we end up going for that

The spelling Louis is a lot more classic, like the little prince (not that I'm a royalist). The spelling Louie always reminds me of one of Scrooge McDuck's nephews, was it Huey, Dewey and Louie? Seems a little childish, but maybe that's just me.

Louis

I’d spell it properly.

I think Theo could be v popular at the moment.

No don't do that, it really cheapens a lovely name.

Surely most people know Lou-ee is the correct pronunciation of this French name, since Prince Louis was named? Anyone who does call him Lew-is (which is a nice name in it's own right, but the wrong pronunciation for this name) should only need correcting once.

Theo

I think that spelling has become the more popular one in the UK?

Louis is often mispronounced as Lou-is

Sorry meant to quote the probable use of Louie spelling

In England Louis is pronounced lewee like Prince Louis.

Leo, then it’s the best of both worlds!

I love both but would choose Louis as there are a zillion Theos round us.

I love Louis. Theo is a nice name too but very popular around here.

Louis. I have a Louis!
