What are your opinions on Roscoe? I used to find it grating but now I kind of like it. I think it goes well as a sibling with my current favorite, Felix. I also like that it means 'doe wood' since my husband's name means 'deer lover'.

WDYT of brothers Linus, Felix, and Roscoe?

Really don't care for it, sorry. I find it harsh-sounding and surnamey.

It's fine for a dog

I like Roscoe, and I think it complements Linus and Felix unexpectedly well.

Roscoe will always be a dog name to me. I like Linus, but Felix just sounds so nerdy.

Two nerds and a rodeo star.

I feel like Roscoe just doesn't go as well with the other two, as they go together.
I think it'd be best if Roscoe were the youngest brother, not the eldest or middle.
I like Linus alright, but not Felix or Roscoe.
I could grow to like Roscoe if it were the name of someone I liked. Felix, not so much - I just don't like the sound of it.

I think that only a black guy can pull off Linus and Roscoe, and nobody can really pull off Felix.
