lmao

This is my first thought too unfortunately.
Maybe [name_m]Oswin[/name_m] or [name_m]Osmond[/name_m]?

The only Oswalds I’ve heard of are [name_m]Oswald[/name_m] [name_f]Mosley[/name_f] and [name_u]Lee[/name_u] [name_m]Harvey[/name_m] [name_m]Oswald[/name_m]. Both negative associations. I don’t care for the name.

@choupette Thanks for the feedback

It’s not my taste, and I do think of [name_u]Lee[/name_u] [name_m]Harvey[/name_m] [name_m]Oswald[/name_m], but I think it’s absolutely usable!

@almostactually When I hear about the name [name_m]Oswald[/name_m] I think of [name_m]Oswald[/name_m] Cobblepot from the DC universe and [name_u]Lee[/name_u] [name_m]Harvey[/name_m] [name_m]Oswald[/name_m]…

I absolutely LOVE [name_m]Oswald[/name_m]! There was a cartoon featuring a blue octopus with that name - he also owned a dog named [name_f]Winnie[/name_f]. That cartoon totally made my childhood. I know there were people like [name_m]Oswald[/name_m] [name_f]Mosley[/name_f] who give the name bad associations. However when I hear [name_m]Oswald[/name_m] I just can’t remember anything but the memories.

A name that I also love and has a simillar feel is [name_m]Orville[/name_m].

My favourite combos including [name_m]Oswald[/name_m]:

Oswald [name_u]Asa[/name_u]
[name_m]Oswald[/name_m] [name_m]Ptolemy[/name_m]
[name_m]Oswald[/name_m] [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u]
[name_u]Dean[/name_u] [name_m]Oswald[/name_m]
[name_u]Florian[/name_u] [name_m]Oswald[/name_m] “[name_f]Flossie[/name_f]”

Thank you for the feedback :heart:

personally im not a huge fan, but its quite cool :slightly_smiling_face:
i think maybe as a young adult/teen it might be a little hard to wear, but that would also depend on what part of the world your in :slight_smile:

It works for someone older, but not a teen :stuck_out_tongue:

Whilst I do think of [name_u]Lee[/name_u] [name_m]Harvey[/name_m] [name_m]Oswald[/name_m] and [name_m]Oswald[/name_m] [name_f]Mosley[/name_f] I do think it’s usable. It’s only because the name is uncommon it immediately makes you think of them two figures in history. If the name [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] was uncommon everyone would be oh it reminds me of [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] bronte lol
