[Opinions] The Secret World of Children
Is a programme on British tv programme that shows 9 and 10 year olds trying out things in the adult world. Like working in a shop and buying clothes. They have split the children in to two groups. Below are the names of the children in the first week. WDYT?
Osa (b)
Maxwell (b)
Lily (g)
Harrison (b)
Ben (b)
Alexis (g)
Don’t take criticism from someone you wouldn’t take advice from

I like all except Osa
I feel like I’m seeing more short O names recently. Osa, Olin, and Otto come to mind.
There was a visiting faculty member in my MFA (creative writing) program with a son named Osa. The faculty member is a nonbinary white person, and I think their partner is also white. Curious!
I like Max as a full name or as a nn for Maxwell; I also like Ben as a nn for Benjamin or Bennet. For a girl, I prefer Alexa to Alexis. Harry is better than Harrison, but not a favourite. Osa and Lily do not appeal to me at all.
I like Lily, Ben(preferably with the full name Benjamin) and Alexis.
I like Lily & Maxwell. Osa is unusual. It's multi cultural Spanish, Basque, Japanese & African. It's also a surname and a girl name. I wonder what heritage Osa is from? Maybe Nigerian?
The names Harrison, Ben & Alexis are ok.
