Arthur & Felix
Trying to choose a name for a character but I'm stuck between these two and the polls aren't helping lol...What do you think of when you hear these names (separately)? What characteristics do they evoke to you? What do you think of them?

They have similar somewhat mitteleuropean/old fashioned vibes, as an alternative young boys with hipster parents.

Arthur to me seems like a smart, athletic guy, who loves art and playing music. Felix would be a gentleman who loves to read stories and cook food. Arthur is actually a favorite of mine, so I do prefer it to Felix. However, Felix is also a very respectable and handsome name! Due to my personal bias, I'm going to choose the name Arthur.

Arthur feels more introverted and nerdy while Felix is more of an extroverted charmer.

Arthur is bookish, reserved, and gentle, while Felix is a bit jauntier and more rakish.

I picture an Arthur as a nice person. He is well liked but takes his work or studies seriously and is not much of a partier. He is somewhat of an introvert. As a career I picture him as an engineer or an architect. Felix is more of an extrovert. He is nice but tends to be somewhat of a prankster. He can be serious but likes to have fun. I picture him as a successful salesman or an attorney. I can picture them as brothers.

Arthur is a more serious fellow. Cosy, bookish.
Felix is a bit cheeky and up for an adventure.I like them both and they definitely feel like they could be brothers.
