The great and powerful Oz

What are your feelings on the name [name_m]Oz[/name_m]?

We seem to be developing a boys style of one-syllable, quirky, vintage sounding names ([name_m]Fox[/name_m], [name_u]Kit[/name_u], [name_u]Grey[/name_u]). [name_m]Fox[/name_m] is still our #1 right now but I thought [name_m]Oz[/name_m] could make a potential cute brother.

I loved the [name_m]Wizard[/name_m] of [name_m]Oz[/name_m] growing up (still do, studied it in film class), so that association doesn’t bother me. I also liked the name when I heard it used in American Pie which is random but hey. Not sure how I feel about [name_m]Ozzy[/name_m] because of [name_m]Ozzy[/name_m] [name_m]Osbourne[/name_m] but do think it’s a cute nn too. I do like [name_m]Oswald[/name_m] but would be hesitant to use it because of JFK.

Also wondering what you would pair as a middle from my signature.

I think I prefer your other names to [name_m]Oz[/name_m]. [name_m]Fox[/name_m], [name_u]Kit[/name_u] and [name_u]Grey[/name_u] sound fantastic together for siblings.
If I had to choose middles from your signature it’d be;

[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Brooks[/name_m]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Wilder[/name_m]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]

I like [name_m]Oz[/name_m], though I prefer [name_m]Ozzie[/name_m]/[name_m]Ozzy[/name_m] as a full name. I could see it making a comeback since it has that cool z sound!
I’d pick a longer middle name, like [name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Hawthorne[/name_m], [name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], [name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] etc

I like it. Seems very warm, friendly and adventurous. I think k I would like its as a nn for a longer version even more though. Wouldn’t be too concerned about [name_m]Oswald[/name_m]

[name_m]Oswin[/name_m]
[name_m]Osmund[/name_m]

[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Brooks[/name_m]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Atticus[/name_m]

[name_m]Oz[/name_m] is okay–it more reminds me of the abbreviation for Australia than the [name_m]Wizard[/name_m] of [name_m]Oz[/name_m]. I admit to much preferring [name_m]Oscar[/name_m]/[name_m]Oskar[/name_m] (and even then, I wouldn’t shorten it), but [name_m]Oz[/name_m] seems to fit your style quite well! (I think [name_m]Josiah[/name_m]/[name_m]Josias[/name_m] or [name_m]Ozias[/name_m] could be other ways to get to it besides the other ones listed, if you want a full name.)

I think the suggestions of [name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Hawthorne[/name_m] and [name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Brooks[/name_m] are really lovely–have you considered:

[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_u]Harper[/name_u]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Franklin[/name_m]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Bennett[/name_m]/[name_m]Benedict[/name_m]/[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_u]Theo/name_u
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Victor[/name_m]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Valerian[/name_m]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Patrick[/name_m]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Damian[/name_m]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Dominic[/name_m]
[name_m]Oz[/name_m] [name_m]Hector[/name_m]

Good luck!
