[Opinions] Xavier or Arthur?
Xavier Arthur or Arthur Xavier?
I love both names ending with ‘r’ with a certain rhythm like here.

I love Xavier Arthur. It might be a tad Roman Catholic for my taste, but maybe not.
I love them both, but Xavier!
The normal (though clearly opposed here) three-syllable pronunciation of Xavier is fine with me.

Normal? I don't think the ig-ZAY-vyər pronunciation is the most common. Nor do I think it's the original English pronunciation.
Arthur is a great name, and easily pronounceable. Xavier is…okay….but the eksavier pronunciation is awful. Plus, Arthur Xavier sounds better than Xavier Arthur.
I don’t know of anyone who says Xavier differently than you described.
Just as ZAY-vyer
That’s not how I’d ever say it.
In that case, definitely Arthur.
I like Xavier best
