Help me love Julian?

Julian goes so well with my potential sibset names, but I’m not quite loving him yet.

Does it sound too stuffy, or do you see him as romantic and artsy? Can you imagine it on a child?

Also looking for middles, something soft, bright, quirky and unexpected?

The name feels very soft and romantic, but masculine and solid at the same time to me. Can easily see it on any age & any personality!

Oh I adore [name_u]Julian[/name_u]! One of my earliest name loves. I had a friend called [name_u]Julian[/name_u] as a child, so my first association was with him. I think it’s a names that works for all ages and isn’t stuffy at all. I definitely see it as a more artsy, romantic name. [name_u]Jules[/name_u] is a cool nickname, too.

Middle ideas off the top of my head:

[name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_u]Sasha[/name_u]
[name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_u]Jasper[/name_u]
[name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_m]Casper[/name_m]
[name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_u]Kit[/name_u]
[name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_u]Idris[/name_u]
[name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_u]Darragh[/name_u]
[name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_m]Marceau[/name_m]
[name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_m]Mateo[/name_m] / [name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_m]Teo[/name_m]

Thank you!

Its interesting that [name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_u]Sasha[/name_u] is on your list though, I currently have [name_u]Sasha[/name_u] [name_u]Julian[/name_u], but I’m trying out [name_u]Julian[/name_u] as a first :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: that’s a great list of options though

I think [name_u]Julian[/name_u] is really nice! I’ve known a few and they’ve all worn it well (including [name_u]Julien[/name_u], [name_f]Jenna[/name_f] Marbles’ boyfriend from YouTube).
However, for that reason it doesn’t really have a romantic/aesthetic imagery for me but feels very real.
I do think it works really well with and bridges a gap between aurelia and tallulah, at least for me.

I love [name_u]Julian[/name_u]! It’s in my current top sibset together with [name_m]Leopold[/name_m] and [name_m]Nicolas[/name_m]. [name_u]Julian[/name_u] feels romantic and chic, but it’s also a solid, classic boy name. I don’t think it’s feminine at all. However, I pronounce it yu-le-an (the way it’s said in Finnish), if that changes anything.

It’s more romantic and artsy to me. It’s nice, I think it’s a good name to be cute on a baby, but ‘proper’ on an adult.
