Re: Clicky- Do you like Felix?

  • Felix reminds me of the cartoon cat, but I think it has a retro charm and X names are trendy too  :)

  • My DS is a Felix. It'll probably get hated on but he's Felix Danger Big Smile

  • Like a PP, it makes me think of the cat. I don't really like it. The only person I've known with this name was a girl who chose to go by something completely unrelated because she didn't like it either.
  • Felix is a distinctive, elegant and classic name. It's a family name and was considering it if we were having a boy.

    Any association to Felix the Cat will come only from parents, not his peers. Still popular in Europe. I'd go for it.

  • While it might remind me vaguely of the cat, I doubt any of his peer will have ever heard of the cartoon. I like it.

  • FWIW we don't care about the cat association at all. Neither does anyone we know. Everyone who knows Felix the Cat thinks he's cool anyway. Our good friend painted this picture for DS's room when he was born. As you can tell we're pretty into our snowboarding!
