Underwhelmed

We need a little boy name (were not finding out what the sex of the baby is) to go with big brother [name]Oskar[/name]. I have not really loved anything. A few that we are considering are:

[name]Hugo[/name]
[name]Felix[/name]
[name]Walter[/name]

I would like to think that our style is classic and spunky, but those are all we have come up with…I would love some feedback and other suggestions as well because I am feeling underwhelmed at the moment - thanks!

[name]Hugo[/name] is one of my all-time favourites. So that has my vote straight away. I adore [name]Oskar[/name] and [name]Hugo[/name] as potential brothers.
[name]How[/name] about:
*Sebatian ([name]Seb[/name])
*[name]Theodore[/name] ([name]Theo[/name])
*[name]Roman[/name]
*[name]Francis[/name]
*[name]Jasper[/name]
*[name]Miles[/name] or [name]Milo[/name]

[name]Hugo[/name] is my DH’s top name as well. We made the huge mistake of discussing names with my Mom, and she told me she hates the name [name]Hugo[/name], which has kinda thrown me, and I wish it didn’t make a difference what she thought, but that will always be in the back of my mind now.

[name]Nicolas[/name] or [name]Nikolai[/name] nicknamed [name]Niko[/name]
[name]Arthur[/name]
[name]Linus[/name]
[name]Cedric[/name]
[name]Jago[/name]
[name]Frederick[/name]
[name]Gregory[/name]
[name]Cassian[/name]
[name]Xavier[/name]
[name]Leopold[/name]
[name]August[/name]
[name]Attilio[/name]
[name]Caspar[/name]

I think [name]Felix[/name] sounds perfect with [name]Oskar[/name].

[name]Sebastian[/name]
[name]Leo[/name]
[name]Isaac[/name]
[name]Julian[/name]
[name]Simon[/name]
[name]Everett[/name]
[name]Elliott[/name]
[name]Silas[/name]
[name]Lewis[/name]
[name]Cyrus[/name]
[name]Edmund[/name]
[name]Victor[/name]

I absolutely [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Felix[/name] and [name]Hugo[/name] - [name]Walter[/name] is super cute, too and I love [name]Oskar[/name].

Maybe…

[name]Leon[/name]
[name]Alfred[/name] - [name]Alfie[/name] is so cute
[name]Edgar[/name] (I know a baby [name]Edgar[/name], I freakin love it)
[name]Winston[/name]
[name]Bertram[/name]
[name]Rupert[/name]
[name]Luther[/name]

I agree that [name]Felix[/name] is perfect.

Others:
[name]Jasper[/name]
[name]Jude[/name]
[name]Miles[/name]
[name]Casper[/name]
[name]Calvin[/name]
[name]Silas[/name]
[name]Levi[/name]

I love [name]Edgar[/name] and [name]Arthur[/name], but I don’t know if I would like to have another child with a similar ending sound, er, ar ur, is that too picky? Keep them coming!

I really like all the names on your list and think all go great with [name]Oskar[/name]. It’s hard for me to even pick a favorite because I like them all so much but I’d say that [name]Felix[/name] and [name]Hugo[/name] go better with [name]Oskar[/name] than [name]Walter[/name]. Some others that you might like:

[name]Milo[/name]
[name]Frederick[/name]/[name]Fritz[/name]
[name]Otis[/name]
[name]Otto[/name]
[name]Atticus[/name]
[name]Ezra[/name]

I wouldn’t use [name]Felix[/name] personally. [name]Felix[/name] and [name]Oscar[/name] are the names of the men from the Odd Couple. Good show, but I wouldn’t use both names from it.

I like [name]Hugo[/name], did Mom explain why she hates it?

I think “O” names would be best
[name]Leo[/name]
[name]Orlando[/name]
[name]Milo[/name]
[name]Otis[/name]
[name]Nico[/name]
[name]Otto[/name]
[name]Rocco[/name]
[name]Odin[/name]

My favorite of your options is definitely [name]Hugo[/name]. I think it goes perfectly with [name]Oskar[/name]. [name]How[/name] about…

[name]Arlo[/name]
[name]Edmund[/name]
[name]Callum[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name]
[name]August[/name]
[name]Luca[/name]
[name]Magnus[/name]
[name]Moses[/name]
[name]Rufus[/name]
[name]Theodore[/name]/[name]Theo[/name]
[name]Dashiell[/name]
[name]George[/name]

I love [name]Felix[/name] but I would also advise against it because of the [name]Felix[/name]-[name]Oscar[/name]-Odd-Couple association. However if you live overseas and they didn’t have that show there, it may not matter. I like [name]Hugh[/name] with [name]Oscar[/name]. [name]Walter[/name] is nice too.

I think [name]Felix[/name] is best with oskar…although maybe you should also change the spelling “Felics”??

What about [name]Henrik[/name], [name]Erik[/name], [name]Magnus[/name] or [name]Emil[/name]? Something that keeps with the style of [name]Oskar[/name]?

I love [name]Hugo[/name]! Although we have met several little Hugos in our sons’ playgroup (But I guess its popularity would depend on where you live- if that is even important to you.) I also really like the pp’s suggestions of [name]Emil[/name] and [name]Erik[/name]. I think the similarity of a vowel as the first letter is sounds nice when you say them together. [name]Both[/name] sound great with [name]Oskar[/name].

I am from the U.S and [name]Hugo[/name] does not seem to be a popular name here, although in many other countries it is, so I wonder if it is one of those names that will catch on here in a couple of years. I would prefer that it didn’t if we end up using it.
