I’m in love with the name [name_m]Xavier[/name_m], and am pondering whether or not its variation, [name_m]Xavian[/name_m], tops it by retaining most of the sound but gaining NN option [name_m]Ian[/name_m].
Thoughts? Like both? Dislike both? Prefer one over the other?
I’d love to hear your feedback.
I don’t like [name_m]Xavian[/name_m]. It’s looks very made up and ‘avian’ sticks out to me, so I think birds with it. I don’t love [name_m]Xavier[/name_m], but if I had to choose I would be 100% behind [name_m]Xavier[/name_m]. If you like [name_m]Ian[/name_m] as a nickname, what about something like [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Julian[/name_m], [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] or [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Lucian[/name_m]?
I kinda like [name_m]Xavian[/name_m], but seeing ikfly point out the ‘avian’, now all I can see is X-Avian.
Can’t go wrong with [name_m]Xavier[/name_m].
I’m not at all a fan of [name_m]Ian[/name_m], so the possibility of it as nickname doesn’t entice me in the slightest. I’m not keen on [name_m]Xavian[/name_m] though - it just doesn’t feel right somehow…a little harsh/abrupt maybe. [name_m]Xavier[/name_m], however, is great.
I prefer [name_m]Xavier[/name_m]. I had never heard of [name_m]Xavian[/name_m] until this moment.
I have never come across a [name_m]Xavian[/name_m], but heard Zavian for the first time recently. I like both [name_m]Zavier[/name_m]/Zavian with a Z rather than X personally. [name_m]Xavian[/name_m]/Zavian have the advantage of being less common than [name_m]Xavier[/name_m]/[name_m]Zavier[/name_m]. I like it and the avian reference doesn’t bother me.
I slightly prefer [name_m]Xavian[/name_m], which I also found when looking at [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] a while ago. It’s got the -ian ending, that I love (although oddly enough I dislike [name_m]Ian[/name_m]), and it’s not as popular as [name_m]Xavier[/name_m]. I don’t think you can go wrong with either.
I prefer [name_m]Xavier[/name_m]!
[name_m]Xavier[/name_m] is a great boys name. Very masculine.
I don’t like either but prefer [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] but I also really like [name_m]Iain[/name_m].
[name_m]Xavier[/name_m] I like , there are 3 pronunciations though
x- av- ee-er
Zav-ee-er
Zah-ve-ayr
I don’t like [name_m]Xavian[/name_m] I don’t know why but it makes me kind of uncomfortable which I know doesn’t make sense but I think its just too much shoved together.
Which pronunciation are you asking about?
