Miles
What do you think of Miles?Miles or Milo (MY-lo)?It seems to me that a few years ago Milo felt like the next huge thing. And yes, it is rising. But I honestly expected it in the top 20 by now.

I don't like Miles, I prefer the metric system. All jokes aside, it's preferable to Milo, as it doesn't sound as childish.

I far prefer Miles. And I always thought that Milo couldn't happen in South Africa because of the malted chocolate drink powder, but now I know a 5-year-old whose mother had another name picked out but suddenly had a lightbulb moment when he was born and announced firmly that his name was Milo. I've never heard of another one here, but if one, why not several?ETA I probably wouldn't use Miles, but just because there are so many names I prefer.

Milo is cute. I guess I'm biased about Miles because its my little nephew's name. Personally I like Milo better but both are good names.

I love Miles and hate Milo. Miles is seventeenth century charm, Milo sounds like something you put in milk to make it more palatable.

I like Miles, it has a very cool, 1920’s vibe to me. Milo is more spunky and young sounding, though still suits a grown man. I think I prefer Miles to Milo though.

I love Miles. I don’t really like the Myles spelling though, which for some reason is the more popular one in the U.K. at the moment. I’ve never been a fan of Milo, I’ve always seen it as more of a dog’s name!
