WDYT of the name....

[name]Cyprian[/name]?

I am not pregnant but hoping to TTC this Fall. So I am brain storming names with my boyfriend just to see what we both like. Our one name we have chosen is [name]Anton[/name] [name]Leo[/name] or [name]Anton[/name] [name]Grey[/name]. But having other options is never a bad thing!

Thank you.

I like how [name]Cyprian[/name] looks, but not really how it sounds. Is it [name]SY[/name]-pree-un? [name]How[/name] about [name]Cyrus[/name]? Or [name]Silas[/name]?

I absolutely love it. It’s gorgeous.

@tenleyskye- It is pronounced like that. or like the beginning of [name]CYrus[/name]. We can not use names ending is S or X due to our last name. The transition never sounds right and is rough.

augusta_lee- Thank you! I just want something strong yet different.

I love and pronounce it sip-re-an

A [name]Cyprian[/name] ‘sip-ree-un’ (or Cypriot) is someone who comes from [name]Cyprus[/name]. I can’t see it as a name :confused: It also apparently means ‘lewd and licentious’.

Not my type, sorry :slight_smile: It sounds a little too posh around here (I live in [name]France[/name]).

You pronouce it Sip-ree-un? I do not know if I like that anymore. I was thinking you say it the other way. :confused:

This.

I prefer [name]Caspian[/name] or [name]Cassian[/name].

Not a big fan of [name]Cyprian[/name] personally, but I do love [name]Anton[/name]!

Now that I have heard how it is truly said not a fan really.
lizabethm- Agreed, but thank you! it is the only boy name my boyfriend and I have agreed on.

scarletrune- I do like [name]Caspian[/name] not sure if my boyfriend would go for that name.
