Now that I’m actually expecting, I would love to hear your honest opinions on my top 2 boys names. I can take whatever you through at me. I’d love to hear your feelings, thoughts, what you picture and which is your favorite.
All then names are significant.
[name]Damien[/name] [name]Quillon[/name] Frode – I’m pronouncing [name]Quillon[/name] as kwil-on even though I know it’s a mispronunciation. Frode = froh-duh
[name]Alexander[/name] [name]Dante[/name] [name]Griffin[/name] is such a cool, quirky name…love it! Not really a fan of [name]Damien[/name] [name]Quillon[/name] Frode, sorry!
Congratulations! I love [name]Alexander[/name] [name]Dante[/name] [name]Griffin[/name], a great classic. I am not a fan of [name]Damien[/name] sounds to devilish to me for some reason.
Thanks guys. @isirapjl – I hate the devilish comment so much but I am aware a lot of people think that because of The Omen but they don’t seem to think that about [name]Reagan[/name], [name]Jason[/name] or [name]Freddy[/name]. [name]Damien[/name] means “tame”.
[name]Alexander[/name] [name]Dante[/name] [name]Griffin[/name] is perfect. It’s so handsome with just enough quirk and personality. [name]Alexander[/name] is so great in the first position, strong and classic and I love [name]Griffin[/name]. [name]Dante[/name] in the middle anchors it all perfectly.
I can’t say I’m as crazy about [name]Damien[/name] [name]Quillon[/name] Frode. I think there is too many things going on with both [name]Quillon[/name] and Frode being potentially mispelled or said. I do like [name]Damien[/name] [name]Quillon[/name] or [name]Damien[/name] Frode.
Between those two I’d say go with [name]Alexander[/name] [name]Dante[/name] [name]Griffin[/name]. Nothing wrong with [name]Damien[/name] [name]IMO[/name], but I do not like the mn’s. I also like the fn [name]Asher[/name] on your list, but not [name]Loki[/name]. It’s more of a pet name to me now with all the movies coming out these days.
I felt like even though I had a HUGE list prior to conceiving, when I became pregnant and it sunk in that I was naming a child a lot of the names I loved no longer worked for me. It’s funny how having a REAL baby to name changes the game.
Lol I think totally the opposite of all the PPs so far. [name]Damien[/name] [name]Quillon[/name] Frode is awesome!! It seems way more exciting then [name]Alexander[/name] [name]Dante[/name] [name]Griffin[/name] (which is a nice name too btw) to me. I see [name]Damien[/name] as being either dark or red haired with brown eyes…dashing and energetic…independent and strong… Anyways that’s just the image I have. Congratulations.
[name]Love[/name] [name]Damien[/name], neautral about [name]Quillon[/name] ([name]Quinlan[/name] is better, but not with [name]Damien[/name]) and Frode is difficult for me because he’s familiar. Frode peaked in the 70’s here, so it’s the kind of name that just not in style, I’m not sure I’m ever going to like it.
[name]Alexander[/name] is a little dull, [name]Dante[/name] is wonderful and [name]Griffin[/name] okay, I prefer [name]Griffith[/name].
[name]Damien[/name] [name]Dante[/name] [name]Griffin[/name] would be my pick.
Or maybe [name]Alexander[/name] variant Iskandar would appeal to you? Iskandar [name]Griffin[/name] [name]Damien[/name] would be nice
Mix my own from your signature lands me at [name]Dante[/name] [name]Asher[/name] [name]Constantine[/name] which seems a little tame. [name]Quinlan[/name] Zarex [name]Constantine[/name]?
Thanks some more ladies! [name]Glad[/name] to see some love for [name]Damien[/name] @elky – you know, you just described what he’s likely to be like. I’m black headed, daddies brown headed, I do have red heads in my family and Daddy is certainly “energetic, independent and dashing”
[name]Damien[/name] [name]Quillon[/name] Frode for me. I think [name]Damien[/name] is a wonderful name - I can’t use it so I want others to - and [name]Quillon[/name] is exciting and different.
[name]Alexander[/name] [name]Dante[/name] [name]Griffin[/name] by far! I’ve always been a big fan of that combo. [name]Damien[/name] [name]Quillon[/name] Frode reminds me of The Hunchback of Notre Dame too much.
[name]Ah[/name] man east93! I would assume it’s the Frode part that makes you think that? Now that you mention it, I hear it too! For your own info though, Frode means “clever”
[name]Damien[/name] is an awesome name. I’m just not a fan at all of the middles (although Q would be such a fun initial to have!). I much prefer [name]Alexander[/name] [name]Dante[/name] [name]Griffin[/name]. [name]Alexander[/name] is one of my favorite boys’ names, and I like that the two middles are more recognizable than [name]Quillon[/name] and Frode.
Congratulations!! I don’t know how helpful I will be since I can’t vote fully for either choice but my input is that I like [name]Griffin[/name], [name]Dante[/name], [name]Alexander[/name], and [name]Damien[/name] in that order. I also loveee [name]Soren[/name] from your list. I would say you should keep experimenting with all of those lovely combinations until you find one that is just the right mix of practicality and daring. Good luck! =]
[name]Alexander[/name] [name]Dante[/name] [name]Griffin[/name] is my favorite. I like all three names. [name]Damian[/name] [name]Quillon[/name] is very nice sounding combination too, but I am not crazy about Frode. Congratulations!
