I also like Oliver but always think of the play


OP here. We would use the nn Charlie.

Benjamin would be nn Ben. We do not like Benji.

I think Connor and Owen go well together.

Caleb.

Connor and Caleb go together so well, and yet retain uniqueness from each other.

Charlie us one of my favorite boy names and I personally wouldn’t let the cat thing get in the way. But if it prevents you from using it as his first name, I’d scrap it as an option altogether. Don’t name him Benjamin Charles and call him Charlie. That makes no sense.


I think the issue OP has is she doesn’t like Charles and people night assume her kids name is Charles instead of Charlie.


NP. My son is Charles nn Charlie. 0% of people have ever called him Charles. Teachers and doctors see the name and immediately jump to Charlie. I also don't like the name Charles. I was doing my taxes over the weekend and was like "Charles- who is that?!" ha.

Still very undecided unless we just name him Charlie. Feels weird to name a child x Charles and then call them Charlie instead of by their first name.


I have a Charles who has only ever been Charlie. His first girlfriend used to call him Charles as a term of endearment but he’s never used it for anything other than official documentation.

Which name do you think goes best?
