    My brain thinks Felix is going to enter the top 100 names soon and I'll be bummed it's that popular. My "second son" has been named Felix since his older brother was born though and all pregnancy I just think he's Felix then i have to remind myself he's not.

    I think Sly Stallone!

    I think Grover could be on the cusp of becoming 'normal'... maybe I can beat the hoards! And yes, loveable, furry old Grover is very cute!

    Some other names that made the list this week are:
    Arvin
    Marvin
    Ferris
    Rover

    ETA: My H added Fourier to the list. Thanks anyway.

    You might take one look at him and think 'Felix' and it might just feel right from then on! Are you having a boy? or just having trouble with boy's names?

    I think Marvin is very cute. Arvin not as cute. Ferris reminds me of ferret or ferris wheel. With Rover, I doubt you would ever escape the connotation of Rover the dog (but that might not worry you anyway).

    Marvin and Espen, I kinda like it! I have some more Z names but the n sound might not work with Espen - Zarian, Zerron, Zephan.

    Hmm... nice but not quite my style. Thank you! You H and I have similar name tastes. Can I ask what you chose?

    Grover is name #543 in the states- fairly popular really!

    No idea- just stuck on boys names. Hopefully we have a girl

    Ferris reminds me of ferret too-bummer. Cool Z names!! I like Z names And also names with a V.

    V names, mmmm, I will have to try and come up with some. Can't think of any unique ones off the top of my head.
    So your girl names are sorted then? I found girls names so much easier.
    How do you pronounce Fourier?

    Like courier. I told my H no-one will know if it's 4-ier though. He seemed to think because it looks like courier it would be fine.

    I don'tso much like names starting with V, but containing a V like River and Grover.

    Girl's name has been done and dusted since before TTC #1!

    There is SUCH a difference between top 100 and top 10 as far as popularity goes. I know one baby Felix but I don't think he'd end up with lots of other Felix's in his class. Go with you heart I reckon. The name you end up choosing could get popular too!

    Griffin is nice too, but I'm not sure about the kiddies' initial being "EG"

    I like griffin Felix it flows so well and I don't think it's common
    :yeahthat: my thoughts too

    (my nephews name is Felix )

    I guess if you like 'x' in names would you prefer the 'x' in the first or middle name ... or both names ?? and maybe you could decide from there

    Thanks for thinking of me!

    I've gone back with my gut and decided this little guy is supposed to be called Felix. So I've decided on the name Felix Blaze.

    Looking at this thread again though Griffin Felix is still a hot contender!
