[Opinions] Re: Wolfgang?
in reply to a message by cinnamon_roll
There are other "wolf" names that I prefer, like Wolfe, Wolfram or Wulfric. Wolfe Maximilian and Wolfe Theodore are my stock combos.
Wolfgang, on the other hand, always feels a little gimmicky to me. But it does have the Mozart connection to it, so that's a big plus. And the nn Wolfie is darling.
From your list:
Wolfgang Severin -- I can't decide if this is awkward or genius. I'm starting to lean towards genius. Severin is very sophisticated. It leaves you with a combination that means, "severe wolf path." I'll leave that to you if it's a plus or not. Variant Soren works well too.
Wolfgang Otto -- I do like Otto. But together with Wolfgang the campiness factor is elevated to "dangerous." This seems more like the name of a character in a book or comic book, sorry.
Wolfgang Felix -- Perfection. Love it. Definitely my favorite.
Wolfgang Pax -- A wolf pack? A gang of wolf packs? 'Nuff said.
Combos for Wolfgang:
Wolfgang Moritz
Wolfgang Stephen
Wolfgang Casper
Wolfgang Theodore
Wolfgang Benedict
Wolfgang Francis
Wolfgang Cyril
Wolfgang Cyprian
Wolfgang Ambrose
Wolfgang Peter -- unless "Peter and the Wolf" bothers you
Wolfgang Silvester -- wolf path in the forest
Wolfgang Roderick
Wolfgang Knut
Wolfgang Thomas
Wolfgang Alexander
Caspian Isidore
Caspian Llyr
Caspian Ivo
Caspian Ivor
Caspian Wolfe (too noun-y?)
Casper Milo
Casper Matthias
Casper Julian
Casper Marius
Casper Henry / Henricus
Casper Francis / Franciscus
Casper Benedict / Benedictus
Casper Hieronymus -- Gah! You're drawing me into this world of too-fabulous-for-prime-time names
Blaise Pascale -- sorry -- couldn't resist
Blaise Melchior
Blaise Cornel
Blaise Anatole
Blaise Theodore / Tudor
Blaise Nicodemus
Blaise Wulfric
Blaise Everard
Blaise Conrad
Pasco Thaddeus
Pasco Dmitri
Pasco Antonin
Pasco Kennewick (google it)
Pasco Cedric
Pasco Rayner
Spyro Alexei
Spyro Endymion
Spyro Leander
Spyro Thomas
Spyro Timothy
Spyro Thaddeus
Spyro Immanuel
Tycho Kepler -- sue me
Tycho Stephen
Tycho Stellan
Tycho Maximilian
Tycho Immanuel
Mix and match. Happy hunting! :-)

Wolfgang Severin is growing on me. I agree that the best sounding is Wolfgang Felix I think.
I also like your suggestions of
Wolfgang Casper
Wolfgang Cyprian
Wolfgang Roderick (I actually like Roderick but overlooked it for some reason)
LOVE Caspian Llyr but unfortunately Llyr isn't usable for us because of our last name.
I can't pronounce Hieronymus, even after looking at the how to. But I LOVE Casper so much.
Blaise Pascal I would love to use but it's too much I think. ;)

Caspian Llyr: so much sea!!! SO handsome. I love it.
Casper Henricus, Casper Hieronymus: incredibly dignified. Casper Hieronymus has to be the coolest Casper combo I've seen.
