Unusual alternatives to Felix?

[name_f]My[/name_f] partner loves [name_m]Felix[/name_m]. I don’t hate it, but it’s not my favourite. Plus, it’s in the top 100 in the UK and I’d like a name that’s rarer.

Does anyone have suggestions for names that have the same vibe as [name_m]Felix[/name_m] but are more surprising and unusual?

Thanks in advance!

[name_m]Fritz[/name_m] was the first name that comes to mind. [name_m]German[/name_m] for peaceful ruler . [name_m]Fritz[/name_m] is a lot more uncommon - depending where you live. In the US [name_m]Fritz[/name_m] is outside the top 1000 names . Similarly to [name_m]Felix[/name_m] - [name_m]Fritz[/name_m] starts with and F and has an unusual letter

[name_u]Lux[/name_u] - incorporates the x ending

[name_m]Xavier[/name_m] - A saint name ! [name_u]Love[/name_u] the X beginning

[name_u]Fallon[/name_u] - Irish for meaning superior ruler. Gender neutral name . Associated with [name_m]Jimmy[/name_m] [name_u]Fallon[/name_u] - rising in popularity but will likely stay out of the top 500

[name_m]Helix[/name_m] - similar to [name_m]Felix[/name_m] but substitutes the F for the more unusual H . Greek for -from the hares meadow . Also a band name. Feels super edgy to me !

It’s such a sweet name. <3
