A name like Felix or Oscar?

I was thinking of Cyrus but now not sure, and probably not sure enough to persuade dh.

Any ideas?

I also like:

Ezra
Edward
Maximillian
Rufus

Dh has a 'difficult' surname too which the poor dc will have, just to add to the fun.

I know a Felix and Oscar with a brother called Sonny.

HeadlessLadyH · 11/02/2010 14:52

Rufus is my fave. I am biased though as I have one. Everyone always comments that its a great name. He has a cousin Felix and a pal Oscar.

My immediate thought was Milo or Max to your thread though.

minipie · 11/02/2010 15:28

I thought of Rufus (love this name) but you already have it.

how about:

Fergus
Fraser
Tobin
Finlay (v popular this one)

mumoftoomany · 11/02/2010 15:32

How about

Rufus
Quentin
Hector
Milo

Marcus - really under-used IMO. He'll be the only one in his class in 4 years yet it's a pleasant and not 'out there' name?

catinthehat2 · 11/02/2010 17:09

Charlie
Hotel
Whisky
Tango
Romeo

PanicMode · 11/02/2010 18:50

We have a Rufus so was going to suggest that.

We're trying to name #4 and actually had Felix on the list....also

Magnus
Marcus
Hector
Miles
Jasper
Maxim
Montague/Monty
Bruno
Barnaby
Bartho lemew/Tolly

We still can't agree

Ilovemybed · 11/02/2010 20:36

great ideas - thanks! And a few that are on the list. I do love Milo but it really doesn't go with dh's surname. Unless we want dc2 to be bullied mercilessly at school. I think Max is winning at the mo.

Here is the full list:

Axel
Edward
Tristan
Oscar
Xavier
Fabian
Lucien
Maximillian
Leo
Rafael
Lewis
Azre al (not sure this is a name. Maybe we were pissed)
Floyd
Monty
Benedict
Rufus

Hi OP what did you go for in the end - resurrecting this thread as I need to come up with a name for a ds3 and this one is on the right lines. Was thinking possibly of Angus?

Very tenuous Scottish connections on my side, does this matter? (We already have a Dylan and are in no way Welsh)

Jojay · 08/05/2010 12:33

Jasper - the best boys name ever to exist (biased)

Bicnod · 08/05/2010 12:34

I have an Oscar so obviously think that is the best name ever

Also love Max

Dexter as another one to consider?

Magaly · 08/05/2010 12:37

Victor

oceryo · 08/05/2010 12:40

I like Edward and Rufus best from your choices.

oceryo · 08/05/2010 12:40

Names I think are in a similar style to Oscar are

Theo
Barnaby
Jasper
Gabriel
Tobias
Sebastian
Oliver
Reuben
Lawrence
Piers
Hugo
Mil es
Edmund
Tristan

MunchkinsMumof2 · 08/05/2010 13:45

Ivo
Otis
Ned
Bruno
Theo
