Felix.

Sorry for another name thread but we're really struggling to find a name we like and this seems to be one of the few names we agree on.

TIA.

Felix like cats like felix

Bubbaloo - I reckon you should ignore the cat comments.

I wanted to call my son, if I'd have had one, Kasper and everyone said 'what like the ghost?' Wtf! No not like the f'ing ghost, you crazed mad person, like the boys name Kasper, as in if I have a son his name will be Kasper'.

People always come up with some stupidity when you mention a name.

Like oh no I don't like the name Jane, it reminds me of a girl I used to know. Wtf! Who gives a shit if someone called Jane once pulled your pigtails in the playground and now you can't think of that name without thinking of her! Get outta here, I don't give a shit.

My DD is called Eve. And it's oh so funny when people say 'ohhh hope she doesn't marry an Adam'. Get fucked, so what if she does?

Felix is a boys name, the fact that there is a catfood called felix is a big WHATEVER.

If you like it, then go for it.

bumblebeee · 08/02/2007 15:55

I like it. Have a good friend whose nickname is Felix. Might get teased about cat food I suppose...

TeeCee · 08/02/2007 15:57

Felix Da Housecat

TeeCee · 08/02/2007 15:58

You could take any name int he world and find something to mickey take out of it.

It reminds me of an old Knock Knock joke....

Knock Knock.
Who's there?
Felix.
Felix who?
Felix my ice-cream I'll lick his.

TeeCee · 08/02/2007 16:01

I love that knock knock joke, and it's actually made me love the name Felix even more!

Bubbaloo · 08/02/2007 16:09

Lol at some of these posts.

TeeCee-Caspar is also on our list and at least he's a friendly ghost.

Love it, it was on my shortlist for DS but DH wouldn't hear of it, said it was cat food!!!

TeeCee · 08/02/2007 16:23

bubaloo, we have the same good taste then Felix and Kasper are high on my list of fab boys names.

donnie · 08/02/2007 16:25

makes me think of cat food.

well you did ask!

pointydog · 08/02/2007 16:55

posh boho

TeeCee · 08/02/2007 16:59

posh boho - is that what you called yours pointy dog or what you're thinking of calling future kids??????? I think I prefer Boho Posh but each to their own.

pointydog · 08/02/2007 17:40

That was my 'honest opinion' reply to op. Felix is posh boho. 'Tis.

NotAnOtter · 08/02/2007 17:42

there are a few round us - i NEVER think of the cat thing its lovely

Aero · 08/02/2007 17:49

Not for me I'm afraid, and I have to admit, I do think of the cat food! However, this is your baby and namimn a child is a very personal thing, so if you like Felix, then go for it. It's certainly not unheard of.

TeeCee · 08/02/2007 19:36

Pointydog - I know it was your opinion of the OP!!!

pointydog · 08/02/2007 20:12

sorry teecee - have cold, am muddled, have lost all sense of meaning and intention.

norkmaiden · 08/02/2007 20:17

I like it - and it means lucky (?) which is a lovely vibe to wish for your baby, non?
