Phoenix for a boy?

Honest opinions guys! We both love this name but am worried family and the like wont like it so just wanted an idea on what u all think? Your opinion is really appreciated.

Not my cup of tea, sorry. Doesn't Mel B have a daughter called Phoenix? Maybe you'd like Dexter or Xavier?

Not for me either for either sex I'm afraid.

No, really don't like it!

I'm not a fan either. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't use it! We like names like James and Oliver and Reuben - some say over used, some say too old fashioned - but we'll be using them regardless! (Should we be lucky enough to be blessed with babies!)

I like it! My boy has an unusual name. I just asked my husband there & he thinks it's more suited to a girl.

I like it. No matter what name you pick not everyone will like it so go with how you feel. Would the nickname be Fix or Pix?

I'm not keen on it, and also thought of Mel B's daughter with the same name. Would you call him something else for short, a nickname? I like unusual names but Phoenix sounds a bit too "try hard" to me, sorry! Would you consider Felix instead? I like Dexter too.

I like it. If you both like then that's all the counts. Kids grow into their names and people then can't imagine them being called anything else.

Go with what you both like and forget about everyone else. My little boy has an unusual name which we had picked b4 he was born. I was worried about how people would react to it especially family as they are quite old fashioned. However 10 months on and his name is perfect for him and everyone loves it (or at least they say they do). I couldn't imagine him having any other name.
