Can't decide between final two names!

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] Everyone, we are 2 months away and are torn between 2 names for our baby boy: [name_m]Felix[/name_m] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] (we would use the nickname [name_m]Ozzy[/name_m] or [name_m]Ozzie[/name_m]).

Our last name is Esposito (ess-poe-zee-toe), and we are living in the US! (not sure if thats needed, but we will put it out there).

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Both names are amazing! I personally prefer [name_m]Felix[/name_m]

Hello and welcome :slight_smile:

I like both [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] and [name_m]Felix[/name_m]! The nn [name_m]Ozzy[/name_m] is super cute. Hmm that’s a tough one. But I think I’m going to pick [name_m]Felix[/name_m] because I love the meaning. It feels like such a bright, happy name.
Maybe [name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] as a combo?

I like [name_m]Felix[/name_m] best with your surname. There’s a lot of “z” and “s” sounds with [name_m]Ozzy[/name_m] Esposito. [name_m]Felix[/name_m] mixes it up a bit.

I think I prefer [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], but it’s definitely a close one!

I absolutely agree, definitely [name_m]Felix[/name_m] :slightly_smiling_face:

Both names are great choices, so you can’t go wrong with either! While I think [name_m]Ozzy[/name_m] is a super cute nn, I personally prefer the name [name_m]Felix[/name_m]. I agree with a pp that it just sounds like a very happy name. It reminds me of sunshine and laughter!
not sure if you care about nicknames, but I also have heard some cute ones for [name_m]Felix[/name_m]. [name_u]Fox[/name_u], [name_f]Flick[/name_f]/Flix, and [name_f]Fe[/name_f]/Fefe are some examples.
Good luck on naming your little one!!

Have you got a middle name narrowed down? That might help you decide…

Both are great names! I’m leaning more towards [name_m]Felix[/name_m] :smiley:

Either one would be a great choice, but I think [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] flows better with the surname. I may be in the minority here, though…

Great names! I have to vote for [name_m]Felix[/name_m] because that’s my favorite name, however, both names flow well with your surname.

Good luck :four_leaf_clover:

Both such great names. I like [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] ever so slightly more with your surname, but really both work so well.

I love both names but [name_m]Felix[/name_m] just wins out for me. I’m also not a massive fan of [name_m]Ozzy[/name_m] as a nickname for it but that’s just a personal thing. [name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] would be awesome!

[name_f]Welcome[/name_f] to Nameberry, @catsarewild55 :blush:

[name_m]Felix[/name_m] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] are both fantastic choices, I can see why you’re torn!

I love [name_m]Oscar[/name_m]/[name_m]Ozzy[/name_m], it feels solid and classic but also a bit quirky and cuddly.

But [name_m]Felix[/name_m] has to take my vote, it’s such a great name with such a perfect meaning. I love the bright, spiky sound. And if you’re a fan of quirky nicknames, you could call him [name_u]Fox[/name_u] for short.

I vote [name_m]Felix[/name_m], because while they both sound nice, [name_m]Felix[/name_m] always gives me good vibes.

[name_m]Felix[/name_m] is so fun! Gets my pick.

Not a huge fan of [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] personally, and I also think it’s a little vowel & “s” heavy with your last name.

I vote for [name_m]Felix[/name_m].

[name_m]Felix[/name_m] edges it for me, especially with your surname, but both are lovely
