Can I suggest [name_m]Basil[/name_m] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], [name_m]Basil[/name_m] [name_m]Leopold[/name_m] and [name_m]Basil[/name_m] [name_m]Olivier[/name_m]? I love [name_m]Basil[/name_m], but paired with [name_m]Felix[/name_m] it sounds very short.

[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] - overused
[name_m]Leopold[/name_m] [name_m]Felix[/name_m] - ends up just being [name_m]Leo[/name_m]
[name_m]Benedict[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m] - needs a comeback, new way to get [name_m]Ben[/name_m]
[name_m]Abram[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] - okay
[name_m]Basil[/name_m] [name_m]Felix[/name_m] - feels feminine to me, no good nn option ([name_m]Bas[/name_m]?)
[name_m]Raphael[/name_m] [name_m]Sherlock[/name_m] - not bad actually
[name_m]Rupert[/name_m] [name_m]Olivier[/name_m] - just thing of [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] Grint
[name_m]Angus[/name_m] - meat. skip
[name_m]Leonidas[/name_m] - 300, skip
[name_m]Phinneas[/name_m] - just to get [name_u]Finn[/name_u]? skip

I love [name_m]Benedict[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m], [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] and [name_m]Raphael[/name_m] [name_m]Sherlock[/name_m] : ) I would like to suggest [name_m]Roland[/name_m] too, because I think you might like it.

My top three (I voted for all three) are:

[name_m]Rupert[/name_m] [name_m]Olivier[/name_m]- aww, this one makes my heart melt. I picture a scholarly older gentleman, always reading books and writing notes by hand, who shocks everyone by climbing up onto the roof from the balcony with his telescope to see the stars. He lives on a historical English manor and takes his dogs on long walks across the grassy green fields every day.

[name_m]Raphael[/name_m] [name_m]Sherlock[/name_m]- I can’t help but love the fantasy-drama-action movie vibe of this one. [name_m]Raphael[/name_m] makes me think of [name_m]Rafael[/name_m] Nadal, tough and competitive and strong (and handsome). But also classy and elegant like [name_m]Raphael[/name_m] the painter. [name_m]Sherlock[/name_m] is so clever and sly and throws up surprises.

[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m]- I love [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], which gives me the same country-gentleman with a hereditary aristocratic title feel as [name_m]Rupert[/name_m]. I’m not too fond of [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] though- do you like [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Basil[/name_m]? (I say [name_m]Basil[/name_m] as baa-zul rather than bay-zul)

I love [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] and [name_m]Basil[/name_m] [name_m]Felix[/name_m]. What about [name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m], [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] [name_m]Felix[/name_m], or [name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]?

Good luck!

I voted for [name_m]Leopold[/name_m] [name_m]Felix[/name_m] and [name_m]Leonidas[/name_m]. I love all of those names I also liked the whimsicalness of [name_m]Sherlock[/name_m] though I’m not huge on [name_m]Raphael[/name_m].

I really like the idea of [name_m]Leonidas[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m], [name_m]Leopold[/name_m] [name_m]Abram[/name_m] and [name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m].

Awesome list! I love [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] (and love the suggestion of [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Basil[/name_m] – or [name_m]Felix[/name_m]!) and [name_m]Leopold[/name_m] [name_m]Felix[/name_m] the best. [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] is also pretty fantastic.
