We love the name [name_m]Julian[/name_m], but another family member has used it and so it’s out. I’m looking for another two syllable name that has a similar feel. Thanks!
I love [name_m]Julian[/name_m], too! It has three syllables, though, so I’m not sure if you’re looking for ones with the same number of syllables or two-syllable instead! I’ll list both. I think of [name_m]Julian[/name_m] as a “soft” boy name, so here are others I think have a similarly gentle feel:
[name_u]Dorian[/name_u]
[name_m]Adrian[/name_m]
[name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u]
[name_m]Leander[/name_m]
[name_m]Caleb[/name_m]
[name_m]Jonah[/name_m]
[name_m]Judah[/name_m]
[name_m]Lucian[/name_m]
[name_m]Abel[/name_m]
[name_m]Ansel[/name_m]
[name_u]Shannon[/name_u]
[name_m]Nolan[/name_m]

[name_u]Aidan[/name_u]
[name_u]Auden[/name_u]
[name_u]Ari[/name_u]
[name_m]Eben[/name_m]
[name_m]Ewan[/name_m] immediately came to mind. It’s a gentle name like [name_m]Julian[/name_m], has that “ooo” sound, is 2 syllables, and ends with the name letter.
What about these?
[name_m]Damon[/name_m]
[name_m]Landon[/name_m]
[name_m]Leyton[/name_m]
[name_u]Jaden[/name_u]

Another vote for [name_m]Adrian[/name_m].
Those are some great suggestions. I really like [name_m]Lucian[/name_m], [name_m]Ewan[/name_m] and [name_m]Matteo[/name_m]. Thank you all! It’s early so we have some time to mull these over. And I have to laugh as we pronounce [name_m]Julian[/name_m] “[name_u]Jule[/name_u]-yen” so I never thought of it as a 3 syllable word.
Of the suggestions so far I do like Ewan, Lucian and Llewellyn.
May I suggest Tamojin (pron. Tammo-jin, or Tama-jin)…3 syllables, not accentuating the ‘oh’ sound. Americans would probably tend to pronounce it as Tam-ohh-jin, which doesn’t sound very good at all.
Thanks everyone. There are lots of excellent suggestions. I particularly like [name_m]Lucien[/name_m], [name_m]Matteo[/name_m] and [name_m]Ewan[/name_m], but there are some other great names to mull over. We’ve got some time, and I want to pick the perfect name.
