Re: Oscar - eta
in reply to a message by foxgloves
It does sound geeky to me, and it also sounds coarse/outdoorsy/old-fashioned...I get a similar vibe from Grover, though Oscar is more modern/common.
When I was a kid, I associated it with the Oscar Mayer Weiner song and Oscar the Grouch (who I quite liked, so it wasn't a negative association, necessarily). Now I associate it more with Oscar Wilde, Oscar Isaac, and kids I know of named Oscar.
Oscar Emeric
Oscar Amedee
Oscar Ambrose
Oscar Anthony
Oscar Malachi
Oscar Gabriel
Oscar Dmitri
Oscar Damien
Oscar Daniel
Oscar Lewis
Oscar Myron
Oscar Myles
Oscar Sullivan
Oscar Judah
Oscar Joseph
Oscar Julian
Oscar Timaeus
Oscar Emanuel
Oscar Elliot
Oscar Isaac :)
I'd use Oz if I wanted a NN for it.
Eta: I forgot about the Oscars (Academy Awards)...that association might add some glamour to it.

OH OSCAR ISAAC his name was on the tip of my tongue..i'm not a star wars fan but he is cool.
i like Oscar Emanuel, Oscar Gabriel, Oscar Judah, Oscar Julian, and Oscar Isaac (hah nice). and Oz is a cool nickname, though adds to the hipster vibe a bit?
gahhh im more unsure if i like it or not because you gave good reasons/combos..
