Nickname for Faolan?

Boy Names

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] All,

Looking at
[name_m]Faolan[/name_m] [name_m]Andrew[/name_m] [name_m]Kevin[/name_m] OR
[name_m]Faolan[/name_m] [name_m]Andrew[/name_m] [name_m]Martin[/name_m]
as a boy’s name. I don’t like “[name_f]Fay[/name_f]” as a nn because it may come across too feminine for a boy. Hubby has suggested [name_u]Finn[/name_u] but I thought some berries could come up with some great ideas, too.

I assume this is pronounced the same as [name_m]Phelan[/name_m], which is FAYlyn, if you used [name_m]Phelan[/name_m], [name_u]Pen[/name_u] could be his nickname.
I like the [name_m]Faolan[/name_m] spelling though. handsome.

Maybe call him [name_u]Flynn[/name_u] or: I wonder about what his middle name is. That could be combined to make a cool nickname.

Yep, same as [name_m]Phelan[/name_m] but with Irish spelling. I’m not sure if they come from the same root. [name_u]Flynn[/name_u] is nice too :slight_smile: thanks

It’s actually more like ‘FWAYL-awn’ Faolan - Meaning of Name Faolan - Pronounce Faolan Irish Boy Name

OP, according to this it means ‘wolf’ so how about that as a nickname? Wolfie? Lol.

I think [name_u]Finn[/name_u] could work. My son is [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] and his nickname is [name_m]Jack[/name_m]. Sometimes it doesnt have to make sense, just kinda close.

I also like [name_m]Martin[/name_m] as the second middle. Very handsome.

Sorry, I missed the combos [name_m]Faolan[/name_m] [name_m]Andrew[/name_m] [name_m]Kevin[/name_m] or [name_m]Faolan[/name_m] [name_m]Andrew[/name_m] [name_m]Martin[/name_m].

besides [name_u]Flynn[/name_u]: (which I’m glad you like)

[name_m]Fox[/name_m]
[name_m]Ford[/name_m]

Could you pronounce it as “[name_f]Fay[/name_f]-Lawn” as well? I know that [name_f]Caoimhe[/name_f] has been pronounced both Kee-va and Kwee-Va. Is [name_m]Faolan[/name_m] the same?

Hubby likes [name_m]Fox[/name_m] and [name_u]Flynn[/name_u] best. Thanks all!
