Jasper or Felix?

[Babywithnoname]

Name changed for this.

We're so stuck, please help! Baby boy is 9 days old today and we have got it down to two names.

Big brother is Otto, surname begins with S, middle-names are family names.

Felix or Jasper? I know both are sometimes considered pet names but we don't care.

Thoughts?!

I don't like either tbh OP

I don’t like either either! But I’d choose Jasper if I had to.

Thanks all! Very helpful, the Felix with S surname was a concern for us too, useful to see that others agree it's an issue :)

Like them both. Slightly prefer Felix as all the ones I've met have been lovely. Also there's sometimes slight confusion with the pronunciation of "Jasper/Yasper".

How about Puss?

Much prefer Jasper personally

Another vote for Jasper. And with a more 'solid' middle name like James or Edward.

I’ve had cats called both!

I’d vote Jasper, but that’s probably because I’d marry Damerel in a heartbeat and I preferred Jessamy to Felix of Frederica’s brothers.

Sorry I don't like either due to the association with Felix the cat and Jasper Carrot. One is a popular cat name and the other is a popular rabbit name.

Jasper Carrot is/ was a comedian!

Jasper is gorgeous!

I know an 18y old Jasper. They have never heard of Jasper Carrot ...

I prefer Felix.

Love Jasper - seems like it's getting popular, do others think so?
Felix with S surname will sound odd I think.

What did you decide??

There are 7 boys at my daughters nursery called Felix and I know another 3 outside of that, if popularity bothers you.
