Leland (most likely will be future DS's name, after a family member) If I hadn't just watched Twin Peaks, I'd probably like this name. Right now it creeps me out.

Otto Nice if it represents your heritage.

Arlo Okay

Leo Nice

Oliver Nice

Milo Okay

Miles Okay

Ansel Nice

ETA: forgot some:

Hugo Okay

Graham Okay, prefer the spelling Graeme

Jasper Nice

Felix (probably won't use because it was DH's late cat's name) My favorite on your list, this name has grown on me a lot recently.

Leland (most likely will be future DS's name, after a family member)- I know a great preteen kid with this name, like it!

Otto- Only if you're German

Arlo- Dislike

Leo- I like it, but prefer as a nn for Leonardo, Leopold, etc

Oliver- I like it a lot...but like Henry, I feel like I see it allllllll the time (on this board at least) so it's starting to bore me a little

Milo- prefer as a nn for Miles

Miles- see above!

Ansel- okay

ETA: forgot some:

Hugo- Okay

Graham- Like it a lot, my favourite on your list

Jasper- dislike

Felix (probably won't use because it was DH's late cat's name)- like a lot

Thanks for the feedback ladies!!

To those concerned about the nationality surrounding Otto, our last name is very similar to Krug or Klum...so yes, very German (on DH's side anyways, I'm mostly Irish and French).

I'm still not sure if I'd actually use it, I feel like it's a little 'out there' for me, but I totally love it!

Oliver

Looks good! Today I am particularly a fan of Otto on this list. Arlo would be my least favorite, but not by much or anything, they're all good names!

I'm not a big fan of Leland but if it's a family name, it's ok.

Love Arlo, Leo, Milo, Oliver. The rest are just ok.

Arlo and Milo are on my list and Milo is in the top 3 that my DH has agreed on

I also really like all of those names. They are definitely my style. I just met a little guy named Otto this weekend, and he was a cutie! If we were to have another boy, we would be naming him Felix

bumpuser5823822 · July 2012

Leland- I love it! I'd never have the guts to use it becuase it sounds very Hawaiian to me ( another favorite is Laylani) it would just be too random for me to use! Oh and I don't care about the Dog the Bounty Hunter connection.

Otto- Ok

Arlo- NMS

Leo- super cute

Oliver- Ok

Milo- NMS

Miles- Ok

Ansel- yuck. sorry.

ETA: forgot some:

Hugo- NMS

Graham- Love it!

Jasper- NMS

Felix- NMS
