Well when you call them it'll sound like you're yelling for film star Megan Fox.

Sorry Grin

I love it...probably comes from when I was a bit obsessed with the x files! I've suggested it when I've had my little ones but we have had girls

Megan Fox Grin

I have a friend who named her son Fox, it really suits him. I've also got a friend who named his son Wolf (they're English, not German) and it absolutely suits him too.

I have a real soft spot for fox (also an x files fan!) but I don't think it goes with meg.

Travis is nice.

Dd2 (12) has a female friend named Fox. It works well but we live in London in a very international area so there are lots of non-traditional, not English names.

Do it!

I am a terrible influence, I am a huge X Files fan and was tempted to name one of my boys Fox. I named my eldest William instead (Mulder's middle name).

I would be delighted to meet a little child called Fox and would assume one of the parents is an X-Phile.

I know a Fox. I was a bit Hmm when I first heard it, but I quite like it now and it does suit him.

Not so keen on Travis.

I think it would be a very cool middle name.

Not so good as a first name.
