Felix , Oscar, Lawson or Jack?

[magbags]

Hi there, We are having a little boy this time around (already have dd Age 2). I am going round in circles trying to choose between these names and need some help please!

For me I like Oscar or Felix. Lawson is odd, but may suit. Jack is OK.

Like them all except Lawson, sounds odd... sorry. What about Lawrence instead of Lawson?

I like Lawrence but dh not so keen! Lawson was a family name a couple of generations ago (ie great grandfather's first name). This gave us the idea but it wouldn't really influence me into picking it. {smile} It's really interesting to hear that you both like Felix as this is the current favourite!

Jack has been top of the popular list forever but i guess you already know this.
Oscar is up there for this year too I think.
I quite like Lawson (with Laurie for short) and Felix is a bit too pussycat for my liking
so. Lawson I guess.

I really really like Felix. Sadly my OH is not keen I think Jack and Oscar are lovely but I would be put off calling my little one Jack because of its popularity (think this is a reaction from being a Sarah Louise made in the 80s!).

Happy choosing!

I know what you mean about Jack being maybe being just too popular, this is my one big concern too (No 1 for twenty years or something!). I do still really like it though, quite a strong "no nonsense" name I reckon! Just worried it might be too much of an obvious / boring choice now.

i like oscar best

although never heard of a lawson so that could be a unique choice

i like oscar best

I love Felix or Oscar- Felix the best because it is more unique and I think it means happy? Felice in Italian Feliz in spanish etc..

I don't like Lawson very much...It will sound like a surname, and I just don't think it's as cute.

I HATE JACK PLEEEEASE DON'T CALL YOUR BABY JACK!!

Jack.

NOT Lawson, for the love of all that is right in the world

i like felix,

no

call him Jon

I love the name Jack. Yes, it is popular. But so is strawberry jam and people still buy it!! heehee. If you dont have a Jack in your family already, then I dont see that its popularity makes any difference. Oscar is nice too :0)

Either Oscar or Felix, both cracking names. Jack isn't bad, Lawson is more of a surname.

Felix

Felix

Felix.

Too many of the others about now. And Felix is the best name of the bunch.

We had Felix on our list, but we know a couple now, so it put me off a bit (plus DH wasn't sure he could get past the cat connection).

Jack - far too popular

Lawson - not really a first name for me

Oscar - too popular for me, but I do like it very much!

Only older people associate Felix with a cat, nursery kids will have never heard of felix the cat- Go with Felix or Oscar.

Sorry I know I've already posted but I feel too strongly about this to let it slide! Felix or Oscar!!

oscar is a name for dogs, imho.

Felix, Oscar and Jack are all lovely

I know brothers called Felix and Oscar.

Oscar is my favourite.

oscar x x

Jack.

It's definitely the most popular, but for a reason, I think. ie. because it's nice!

Lawson is revolting, sorry.

Jack is very popular, I would like to say Oscar but I wouldn't have the balls to do it myself, I am not a use a funky name for real fan.
