Help[Opinions] Re: Oliver, August and Noel
in reply to a message by Ninor
Noel is a very Christmassy name to me, which is fitting for a december baby, so it's just an observation. It's not one of my favs. I'm not keen on the sound. NO-EL sounds better to me than NO-əl does (which is already better than NOL).
Oliver is a decent name with a good sound. It's been growing on me; I used to dislike it, but not anymore :) I don't like that I've heard it used so often, but I know popularity doesn't really bother you, so that's not an issue. This is my fav out of these three.
August is a name I like mostly on paper. I like the look of it, but not the sound. the -gust part reminds me of 'disgust'. I'm not really sure how I feel about a december baby being named August. It doesn't really matter much I guess... I think this is a very good MN, but I'm not overly enthusiastic about August as a FN.

Maximus Constantine are two badass names, especially when paired together.
I especially like:
Noel Sebastian Alexander
Noel Felix Theodor
Noel Maximilian Felix
Oliver Sixten Felix
Oliver Zacharias Arthur
August William Nilas
August Vilhelm Nicolas - but wouldn't use Nicolas. Feels a bit cheesy when my own name is Nicole, and my brother is Nicklas..
August Caspian Julius

I thought I could get away with sneaking Nicolas there in the second MN spot :P I actually like it as a 2nd MN because of the reasons you will NOT use it.

August is such a popular (and classic) name here so there wouldn't be any problems at all with him being born in December. I go back and forth on August though, like you I prefer the look of it but I'm not completely in love with how it sounds. It keep popping up in my head whenever I think of other names possibilities for 'Eggbert' though.
