"Scottish Forenames" - Donald Whyte, FGH, FSG
Notes:

English and French from Latin, "happy" or "lucky"; NT Acts 23:26-35.

  • Note The French form has an accent: Félix.

Felix occurs rarely in the 1841 Census of Aberdeenshire.

In old documents in Latin the name Felix is used but declines as Felic- with case endings.
