[Opinions] Milo or Linus?
Replies
Thanks so much for all of your helpful responses! I think we've decided to go with Linus--inspired more by Linus Pauling than the Peanuts character : ). Also, this name is uncommon in the US (#994 of all baby names last year) which we like. And I agree with others that it grows up well. Thanks again!

Linus. Milo is a chocolate drink powder where I live, not to mention the Venus de Milo. And Peanuts isn't as prevalent as it once was, though the Peanuts Linus is a pretty good namesake.

Yay!
If you choose Milo I will cheer!

Both are names that I love and were vetoed by my husband. Although Milo did make car-name status. :)
You truly cannot go wrong. I slightly prefer Milo over Linus, but I could be easily swayed depending on the middle name(s) you are considering, if you are considering any.

Tough call, but . . .
Linus lives in my heart. I don't know if it's because he's more of an underdog with non-namenerds, or if I'm subconsciously remembering happy Peanuts and polio thoughts. But I've always adored the name Linus. Peter Linus is a stock combination of mine. I can see Linus Peter being equally handsome.
You can't go wrong with Milo either. As I said, it's a tough call to make. Good luck, and please let us know what you've decided once you get a chance. Thanks!

Interesting, Ninor....I'm so curious where you live??? Because I don't know anyone personally named Linus!
Linus
For sure. It's got such sweet associations, and it's nice and crisp and smart. Milo seems doofy to me.
