I am pregnant with a boy and looking for names that “feel like” [name]Julian[/name] (my son)- softer, sweeter, but strong, and more bold choices for boys than people have seen lately.
For example, I think [name]Adrian[/name] feels like [name]Julian[/name] (I’d use it but I have an [name]Aidan[/name]- and not because of trendiness, but because I love his name :D). I also think [name]Emil[/name] and [name]Sascha[/name] do. Any other suggestions?
I was going to suggest [name]Adrian[/name], lol!
Names that feel like [name]Julian[/name] to me (and I love all of these!):
[name]Jude[/name]
[name]Ezra[/name]
[name]Morgan[/name]
[name]Quinn[/name]
[name]Paul[/name]
[name]Gabriel[/name]/[name]Gabe[/name]
[name]Graham[/name]
[name]Do[/name] you think [name]Morgan[/name] has totally gone to the girls now or is it salvageable?
I really love [name]Gabriel[/name]- would it turn into [name]Gabe[/name] automatically?
Is [name]Graham[/name]/[name]Graeme[/name] too wordish for a name?
Those three are the ones I like the most. I do like [name]Ezra[/name] too but there is a harsher sound in it that I’m not sure I’d look past. DH likes [name]Ezra[/name].
[name]Julian[/name] or
[name]Milo[/name]
[name]Richard[/name]
[name]Stuart[/name]
[name]Alister[/name]
[name]Quentin[/name]
[name]Lawrence[/name]
[name]William[/name]
[name]Gordon[/name]
One that I thought of is [name]Oliver[/name].
About the OP’s question about whether or not [name]Morgan[/name] could still work for a boy: I think it is still a good boy’s pick.
[name]Julian[/name] has an antique charm that I love. It is also a name of a saint. Here are some other boys names with that same feel. My favs are in bold.

I’d say we have a similar style in boys names. [name]Julian[/name] has always been one of my all time favorites.
Others you might like:
[name]Andreas[/name]- a bolder choice, but it still pairs well with [name]Julian[/name]
[name]Sebastian[/name]- [name]Julian[/name] and [name]Sebastian[/name] were made for one another
[name]Oliver[/name]- Again, perfect pairing.
[name]Edmund[/name]
[name]Mattias[/name]
[name]Felix[/name]
[name]Theodore[/name]
[name]Soren[/name]
[name]Jonas[/name]
[name]Leon[/name]
[name]August[/name]
[name]Lucian[/name]
[name]Desmond[/name]
I think [name]Graham[/name] is lovely with [name]Julian[/name].
