[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).
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.
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!!
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_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.
