For what that it’s worth, I love [name_u]Teddy[/name_u]!

However, I did go with [name_u]Percy[/name_u]. [name_m]Hector[/name_m] I’m not such a fan of, I think the sound is a bit harsh, especially with an English accent. [name_u]Percy[/name_u] is sweet, soft, and quaint, yet not a nickname. If your [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] was formally [name_f]Tilly[/name_f] or [name_u]Mattie[/name_u] or something otherwise nickname-y, I think I would have gone with [name_u]Teddy[/name_u]. However, your other two (wonderfully named) children have “proper” names, so I think [name_u]Percy[/name_u] fits best. [name_u]Percy[/name_u] is also suitably owlish, with just the right about of spunk and smarts. [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], [name_m]Felix[/name_m], and [name_u]Percy[/name_u] has a very nice ring to it!

Best of luck in naming your new little one.

[name_u]Teddy[/name_u] is very sweet and has been growing on me of late. However, I can see why you have your reservations despite it being the family favourite :slight_smile: I think the above poster is right in saying [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] has more of a nickname status in comparison.

Personally I adore [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], [name_m]Felix[/name_m] and [name_u]Percy[/name_u] together. They all have a nod to the vintage and feel very classic, gentle and noble. [name_u]Percy[/name_u] is a beautiful, handsome choice and perfectly fitting with [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] and [name_m]Felix[/name_m].

[name_m]Hector[/name_m] would be my least favourite, as it’s slightly stronger sounding than his siblings names. Nevertheless I think he fits in just fine.
