Hi, DF and I need help with boys names. We have a "Felix" and prefer unusual names as first names and strong classic names as second names. Baby is due in August and despite DF's intuition that it's a girl I feel like we need to get started on boys names because I'm out of ideas (and sick as a dog). lol. Names on the list so far:- Lucien Torsten Cassius Tobias Caius (I love Caius but hate the nn Kai/Cai so it's most likely off the list). Phinneas (Already have a variation on Finn in the family so it can't be used). Theodore (Have a Theodora in the family, love the NN Theo - pronounced t-AY-o) Gideon At this stage the middle name will be Duncan or Charles. Surname sounds like Haul so H names are out. Thanks Ladies!

Sounds like you've got a bit of a german twist to those names... What about Axel, Diedrich, Eric or Kurt?

Tobias Duncan or Lucian Charles would be my pick. Phineas and Theodore with Felix are a bit of a tongue twister. Suggestions: Felix and Julius/Julian Felix and Jude Felix and Oscar Felix and Spencer Felix and Elias Felix and Marcus/Marco Felix and Seamus Felix and Lorenzo Felix and August/Augustus Felix and Milo Felix and Raphael Felix and Vincent Felix and Marley Felix and Luca Felix and Darcy Felix and Brady Felix and Byron Felix and Sampson/Samson Felix and Blair Felix and Dexter Felix and Baxter Felix and Malachi Felix and Atticus Felix and Roman Felix and Aston Felix and Asher Felix and Eric Felix and Alec
