Which do you prefer?
Miles or Milo?
thats SO tough. i love both. i think milo wins though, by just a hair.
I'm torn because I think I like the sound of Milo better but Miles sounds more like a full name to me, whereas Milo is a bit nicknamey.
Milo is really cute, but I can't really see it on an adult.
I knew a Miles. To me it seems like an odd name and I kind of think of the Sonic video games, but it really fit him and we were pretty good friends for awhile in HS so I guess I like it more than Milo.

I'm leaning toward Miles with the nick name Milo, the best of both worlds...
Milo. Miles is a little too prissy sounding for me; Milo seems more loose and free.
Miles does sound a bit prissy to me too.

cool, Miles seems to be winning.
I knew a Milo, although here in Italy it was pronounced Mee-lo, and he was most obnoxious so it makes it out for me haha I also associate it with the Venus of Milo, so it's a feminine name to me.
Miles, I like how it sounds. But the fact that it's the plural of "mile" is a big deterrent. It would work nice as a nickname, though, but I can't think of a name to use it for

As far as it being a plural of Mile goes, I am in Canada so we use Kilometers. I don't think it's AS big a deal.
Milo. For those who think it is too cutesy or childish... Milo Ventimiglia!! Come on!

I say Miles with Milo as a nickname. That way you can call him Milo (which I like, but it has a cutesy young feel to me) but he'd have a classy name for more official matters.
Miles. Milo sounds like a dog's name.
Miles. That's okay cus if someone used Milo, i'll think of a orange kitty.
my vote goes for milo. i think that the name might get awkward in the early teen years, but i really like it. miles is nice too, especially because i connect it with miles davis, but i definitely appreciate the sound of milo more :]
I like Miles better, just because I will always think of the movie 'Milo and Otis' when I hear Milo, and I like the sound of Miles way more. But I definitely think that Miles, with the nickname of Milo, would be great! :)
I considered Milo (pronounced My-lo)when naming my son but I decided it was too cutesy and Hollywood baby and went with Miles instead. I'm so glad I did because Milo just wouldn't fit him.
Is there a hollywood baby named Milo?
I LOVE Miles. And Milo is an adorable nickname.
Miles. I had a puppy named Milo so I guess it's a puppy name to me.
