Which name do you prefer for a boy? [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] ([name_m]Dex[/name_m]) or [name_u]August[/name_u] ([name_m]Augie[/name_m])?
I mentioned [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] to my mom and she hates it-but I can’t get it off of my mind! I also love [name_u]August[/name_u]-it seems timeless and classic however the hubby doesn’t like it
I just love the name [name_m]August[/name_m]. [name_m]Dexter[/name_m] is way to harsh for ME to like it.
I associate [name_m]August[/name_m] with a character of a book called “Wonder”, he’s just so lovely and honest, as is the book.
I feel like if you need someone to warm up on that name, you give this book to them 
I love [name_u]August[/name_u] so much more than [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] and Auggie is so great. Personally, I like them together too. [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] [name_u]August[/name_u] or [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] is a good mix of harder and soft and classic and more now.
I like both names, but prefer [name_u]August[/name_u] to [name_u]Dexter[/name_u].
[name_u]August[/name_u]! I love the nn [name_m]Dex[/name_m] and I prefer [name_u]Gus[/name_u] to [name_m]Augie[/name_m], but I really like the name [name_u]August[/name_u].
I prefer [name_u]August[/name_u] and also the nickname [name_u]Gus[/name_u]. I have a friend with an [name_u]August[/name_u] nicknamed [name_u]Gus[/name_u] and it is adorable on him.
I like both, but think [name_u]August[/name_u] is a better choice. [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] reminds me of the TV show.
I like [name_u]August[/name_u] slightly more but [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] is great too
I love [name_u]August[/name_u]!
I guess I am the outcast here because I definitely prefer [name_u]Dexter[/name_u]. [name_f]Love[/name_f] the nn [name_m]Dex[/name_m]
I can’t stand [name_u]August[/name_u] names ([name_u]August[/name_u], [name_m]Augustine[/name_m], [name_m]Augustus[/name_m], etc.)! I much prefer [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] and I love the nn [name_m]Dex[/name_m].
I personally prefer [name_u]August[/name_u], but it sounds like [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] is a much better fit for the two of you.
IT doesn’t matter that your mum doesn’t like it. It’s important that you and your hubby do.
Since you can’t get over it and your hubby doesn’t like [name_u]August[/name_u], [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] just seems a better fit.
