[name_m]Walter[/name_m] is my favorite and I love the nickname [name_m]Walt[/name_m]. I think it’s timeless, handsome and adorable.
[name_m]Walter[/name_m]'s so handsome and really unexpected nowadays!
Second favorite is [name_m]Louis[/name_m]. [name_m]Milo[/name_m] is also handsome, it’s only my least favorite because it’s pretty trendy so I think in 20 years it will be considered dated, unlike [name_m]Walter[/name_m] and [name_m]Louis[/name_m].
I’ve always had a soft spot for [name_m]Walter[/name_m] since watching Cranford 
I like [name_m]Louis[/name_m]! Only thing I don’t like is that you might have to correct people about the pronunciation. But they’d probably catch on just fine. I guess [name_u]Lou[/name_u] has the potential to sound feminine, but I think it would be pretty adorable for a little boy!
I also like [name_m]Walter[/name_m] a lot. But [name_m]Walt[/name_m] is pretty tied to Disney in my mind, although I wouldn’t mind it as an informal nickname.
