yes to Otto but urgh NO to Udo. I am German and Udo is just soooo ugly even to my ears/eyes. Otto is nice - classic and unusual.

Otto - ok
Udo - too strange for my ears - sorry to be boring.

We have chosen Oscar btw just wanted to do last minute check.

If you prefer Oscar to both, then that's fabulous.

Udo is that oil they give children with mild adhd, my dc1 is on it. Udo's Oil. it's well known in some circles for that!

Otto is OK. I like it. I love Bruno too.

I love Bruno too.

It is ds1's middle name. I chickened out at the last minute on that one, he was Bruno for first six weeks.

that's funny! i really wanted to call my son Bruno but I wasn't "allowed"

What did you use in the end, I went for a traditional name beginning with J. Did you? (that would be a coincidence!)
