VictorVictor is handsome and strong sounding. Victor and Beatrice for the sibling set.
Felix sounds like a cat.
Albert is nice, but it is a tad old fashioned and would be shortened to Al or Bert neither of which I care for. Victor Albert sounds good together.

If I had to, Victor, and for a sister, Irene. I do really like Irene and think it goes just fine with Victor.

Hi !!!I prefer...Felix and Irene (ee-REH-neh)
I love both names since I was a child and Felix is quite familiar to Italian people (although is a typical cat name TT).
After that their origin (Latin and Greek) very typical roots in Italy and finally their meanings which will bring good luckIf I were English I would choose...
Victor and Sibyl !!
I love them!
Victor is simple but tryumphant.
Sibyl is mysterious but noble and charming.Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Felix and Beatrice. Both these names are very pretty and they complement each other nicely.

Interesting!I'd choose Victor without hesitation, and team it up with Beatrice.My next choice is Albert, and his sister Sibyl.That would appear to leave Felix and Irene! Not a convincing combo, I don't think, Felix being frivolous and Irene very dignified, though I do pronounce Irene with three syllables so perhaps making it eyeREEN would help, though it really bugs me even to think about it - I dislike pretty much every EEN name going: Maureen and Doreen and Eileen etc etc. Christine isn't too bad and I really like Justine, but Ireen is the pits.

Felix! I love the name and we actually nearly used it for our DS#2. Felix and Beatrice. Beatrice is the only one I don't mind.

Felix and Irene. Irene is really the only girl name I like from this bunch, and even then, not so much.

100% Felix!Albert is my second favorite, it's sweet slightly nerdy and traditional. I've never cared for Victor, it's one of my least favorite names. It sounds violent, ambitious, traditional, and overly macho. I might feel different about it if I ever met an actual person named Victor, instead it just sounds like a harsh word name to me.Felix is sweet, creative, laid back with a good sense of humor.Felix is probably best matched with Sibyl or Beatrice who are also creative but are more serious though still have spunk. I think I like Felix and Sibyl together the most since Felix and Beatrice are a bit similar in ending sound and I think I would accidentally call Beatrice Beatrix fairly often. Irene could be extroverted Felix's sweet introverted sister. He would tease her but also protect her.Irene is a shy and sweet name with a very similar feeling as Albert. Irene and Victor are complete opposites, they are as opposite in personality as you can get. So if that was what you were going for and they are characters then that makes sense. Stylistically they work together as traditional old-school names.I think that Albert matches the girl's names the most overall but I slightly prefer Sibyl matched with Felix.
These are the sibsets I feel work bestFelix and Sibyl
Albert and Beatrice
Albert and Irene - birds of a feather
Victor and Irene - odd couple

Wanted to add if I was choosing my favorite two then definitely Felix and Beatrice. Those are the only two here that I love both of.The others I either feel okay about or like but don't love, except for Victor which I hate.

Felix! Love the meaning.Albert is nice too, but Victor sounds quite pompous to me. Vincent seems like a better fit.Felix & Irene

OMG Felix and Irene was my pick, too! lol

Aww, sorry to hear you think Victor is pompous. I can see where you're coming from, but hope it swings towards cute little old man baby... since I might have a Victor someday (family name) :)Vincent is wonderful.

I'd love to have an Albert & Sibyl! I really like the meaning and history of Albert, and I adore Sibyl. Albie & Sibbie would be so adorable! Also Albert is kind of a smooch of my grandads' names, so I would actually like to use it, but as a middle.

Albie and Sibbie! Swoon.

I say Albert. Felix makes me think of Felix the Cat and Victor is just okay.

I love Victor and Felix -- Victor is my current top choice for a boy. Not as big a fan of Albert.I like Victor with Beatrice (share the R sound and V and B compliment each other, great combo!), Felix with Irene (5 letters, nice repeating ee sound but delightful contrast, two kids named Luck and Peace... brilliant), and Sibyl with Albert (not my personal faves, but they both have great meanings/histories and make a lovely pair -- repeating B and L sounds, two syllables).1. Victor and Beatrice
2. Felix and Irene
3. Albert and Sibyl
