What does everybody think of the name Oscar? Be honest. I really like this name but I am curious as to what others think. Picking a name is hard. There is a fine line between a name too common and obscure. For a girl we like the name Madeleine. I thought the name Lola was nice too. I really liked the name Grace but unfortunately my surname is Kelly. |

I prefer Oliver to Oscar and that's only because growing up we had a mean Shitzu named Oscar. I think if I never knew that dog I would love the name. |

I kind of like - different, yet strong. Reminds me of someone who would be a crabby but funny old man. I love Lola, too! |

I agree w/Crystal, I like Oliver better. And I'm not really fond of Lola, only b/c of that song though! |

i think of Oscar as a good name for a dog but not a person. I like Lola though. |

Her name is Lola, She was a showgirl.... BTW, one of my FAVORITE songs!!! I named one of my Yorkies after it and when I sing that song to her she loves it. |

Me too! But I love Oscar the grouch! I like Lola but I think of The Kinks song. I really like Oliver. |

I think of Hot Dogs. I think that there may be a lot of opportunities to be teased with Oscar (Oscar the Grouch, Oscar Meyer Weiners, etc.) I always try to think of that when thinking of a name. I like the name Madeleine and Grace (too bad it doesn't work). For some reason, I think boys' names are always harder to choose. |

Oscar...not so much There was this little boy cross the street and he was a heathen. Oliver is nice. Lola...No not so much. Madeleine is my nieces name but you have to call her that not Maddy or Madison. Good luck. It is hard. |
