[Opinions] Re: Felix, Hugo, Oliver and Vincent
in reply to a message by Ninor
In my life, even though it isn't available where I live, Felix is cat food; no doubt inspired by the classic cartoon cat.
I like the other three, in varying degrees.
Vincent is quite nice. As V- names go, I prefer Victor, but Vincent is much better than Vernon. Unfortunately, a farmer friend has a calf named Vincent, so my feelings are mixed!
In my husband's family, there used to be a tradition of naming a son H- Daniel and calling him Daniel. Odd. The H- names they used are not usable now - Harold and Herbert! - so I would have used Hugo Daniel if we'd ever gone that route. Might have used Hugo, might have used Daniel; both are good.
I like Oliver a lot. A whole lot! But, I dislike Ollie ... so if it's avoidable where you live, I'd probably select Oliver first, then Hugo and then Vincent.
