I love Felix. It's cute on a little boy, but also a strong masculine name, uncommon enough to stand out, but not outlandish. And it has a lovely meaning

I agree with all of this.

I want to like it, but it sounds weak to me. It's not a name I can warm up to, no matter how hard I try. Oh, well.

I love the name Felix, it's a fave of mine and also my Dh's. We considered using Felix for Jethro, but obviously went with Jethro. I personally don't think it fits with your other kids names though, sorry, but that's just my opinion.

We usually seem to have differing taste in names, but I like Felix and I think it fits in well with your children's names.
I like the classic yet fun feel to it.

Classic but fun is a great way to describe Felix.

I used to really dislike it.
It's the name of a really popular brand of cat food in the UK and my best friend had a cat called Felix when we were growing up so for a long time all I could ever think when I heard the name was a black and white feline!HOWEVER...Feline Felix sadly passed away a few years ago and although the cat food advert is still showing quite frequently, I have since met many human Felix bearers that have tuned me into the name for a person.I don't think it will ever be one of my favourites; though my SO likes it too, but I don't heartily dislike it anymore. I still however, don't like the lack of nickname options.Recently I met a Florence (6 years old) with an older brother, Felix (approx. 9/10 years old).

To me, it's silly, fussy, and catty.

I really like it but don't quite love it. I mean it is definitely a good name I just prefer many others. If it was my husband's favorite name since I do really like it I would consider using it, especially if we already went with at least one of my favorite names.I think Felix matches very well with Cassie, Cameron, Hayley, Skye, Nathan, and Blake. Your names all have a laid back cool feel which Felix continues.
