If you had a Rufus already, would you call another boy Magnus?

I love the name, but DH thinks that Rufus and Magnus is OTT

We're struggling with names for DC4...and having 6 months to find one isn't comforting - DS2 (DC3) took a while to get a name!

I love Magnus but have just found out that Rebecca Loos has named her baby MAGNUS Urgh!

I don't think they're TOO similar but they are alike.

I love Angus and Hector too and they are on our list!

I also like Oscar, Finn, Victor & Felix.

Beatrice is a fave of mine too!

You have great taste

OMG - I don't read any celebrity junk magazines etc, but even I know who Rebecca Loos is, so I think that's just killed that one stone dead for me Salonly!!

Funnily enough Victor was on DH's list as it was the name of his grandfather, but I've passed on it as I'm not sure enough about it. There are lots of Oscars, Finns and Felixes (or Felices - not sure!) around us here, otherwise I would consider Oscar or Felix.

I love Rufus - you have good taste! Maybe Rufus and Magnus is a bit too much in terms of -us?

How about

Monty
Victor
Quentin

My Felix is Felix Oscar .

We had Finn on the list in the early days but I changed my mind as it seems very popular. I also loved Milo and Silas but DH didn't. Theo and Seth are no good as DH can't say his 'th's'. My other favourite was Asa but I talked myself out of that one.

I wouldn´t.

It would be Hamish for me!
