I have recently started liking this name after I saw it in a local newspaper as a suggestion for the new Danish Prince's name. I wouldn't use it as a first name though, unless I was living in Greenland, but I think as perhaps a middle name it might sound nice.

WDYT of Felix Andrew Aputsiaq? I'm sure you're going to hate it, but I think it is a very very nice name.

BE HONEST!!!

I like Felix and Andrew seperatly but as a combo I think Andrew Felix sounds better. As for Aputsiaq, I like the meaning but I'm not sure how to pronounce.

I don't like Felix Andrew Aputsiaq, mainly because of the first 2 names are Biblical and Aputsiaq isn't. I just don't like it.

I love Felix, Andrew is ok, but I'm not sure how to pronounce Aputsiaq. But if you like it and the meaning (which is nice), I don't see why it couldn't work as a 2nd mn. :)

Well, it's not my cup of tea, but it appears to be a name with history and meaning in Greenland, so why not? Especially for a child with Greenlandian (is that a word?) roots.

I would keep it as a mn, though.

I like the meaning.

The proper term for someone from Greenland is Greenlandic, sorry for the correction!
