theodore (ted) - like Teddy, but not Ted
jameson - it's ok
reid - like it
My reactions are exactly the same.
Owen is at the top of our name list so that gets my vote
I like Theodore and Jameson, but I don't like them as a sibling set with Henry. Although all of their styles match, the difference in length syllables between Jameson/Theordore and Henry is irritating to me.
Of your choices, I really like Felix with Henry.
I like Owen and Reid.
Not a fan of Felix, Theodore (Teddy, ugh), or Jameson. Flynn is not bad but it reminds me of this kid Gary Flynn who had a crush on me in elementary school and he had a huge head. lol.
Felix. Like it. Cool Roman name that doesn't end in -us.
Flynn. Not bad for a surname-turned-FN. It does remind me of Billy Flynn from Chicago, though.
Owen. There was a time back before its insane popularity that I liked this name. Now I find it dull.
Theodore (ted). Like it! Distinguished and sophisticated name of a pretty cool former president.
Jameson. Kind of makes you look like an alcoholic... I like James, though.
Reid. I have a negative association with this name, but that aside, it's decent.
I think they are all great choices.
Reid is kind of on our list and I love Theodore (although nn Theo), but DH doesn't like it.
Something about the -son in Jameson seems too popular and while Owen is an adorable name, I feel like I've seen a ton of them popping up this past year or so.

Felix the Cat
In Like Flynn
I do not like either of those
Theodore is NMS, but is a good name. I prefer the nn Theo to Ted though
I love Jamison (spelled this way). It is my BIL's name and I hope to use it as a mn some day.
I like Reid too, cute name
I like them all but Flynn. How about Finn?
Out of your list I like Felix the best.
Flynn: NMS. It just doesn't sound like a FN to me at all. Plus, it reminds me of Chicago (the musical, not the city).
Owen: Okay, but becoming very popular. (I know of three IRL, and we see that name on here about a hundred times a day.)
Theodore: Again, I love it! But I prefer the nn Theo to Ted.
Jameson: It could grow on me.
Reid: Like it, especially with Henry.
Felix, Reid, Theodore, Jameson would be my order of preference based on how much I like them paired with Henry.
I like Theodore & Jameson, though don't think they match well with Henry
Though Owen is a popular name (and I've nixed all top names) I think it pairs nicely with Henry
Felix - it's ok. Not my favorite.
Flynn - No
Owen - My favorite!!!
Theodore - Love, and I think Teddy is cute!
Jameson - ok
Reid - Ok
My vote is for Owen or Theodore.
