Can't decide between 3 boy names!

miramesamama · July 2015

Hi Ladies!

I have been a lurker for quite sometime now. As a FTM I have enjoyed reading all of the posts on here and am now in need of some help!

My DH and I have been mulling around with 3 names for some time now. I would greatly appreciate any feedback! This is our first, so we are having a hard time pulling the trigger on deciding!

In Alpah order to keep it fair ; )

Cameron Thomas

Dylan Thomas

Kellen Thomas

The MN is in honor of my father. The FN are ones that we both like.

Thank you!!

I personally like Dylan best. Cameron is ok and I am not a fan of Kellen.

All three are great names. I like them in this order: Cameron, Kellen, Dylan. Couldn't go wrong.

Kellen
Cameron

Dylan

That's my preference.

I like Kellen and Dylan best. I'm not a fan of Cameron.

Also, Dylan Thomas is a name of a famous poet. Don't know if that would change your opinion of the name at all.

seconded.

Dylan, Cameron, Kellen is the order of my preference but all are very nice names!

I like Cameron and Dylan the best.

I'm torn, and here's why.

Kellen - this sounds like the surname / made-up name trend, even thought it's not. I like the name, and it's not super common. But it has a similar feel to a lot of trendy names right now.

Cameron - my personal favorite

Dylan - my least favorite, but also the least time-stamped / most classic. And that makes me like it too!

Ugh. I can see why you're having trouble deciding! Maybe a poll is in order. Or maybe you just take all 3 to the hospital and see which one fits. All sound great with Thomas too.

miramesamama · July 2015

Thanks for all the replies! I really appreciate the feedback!

breezycat · July 2015

I like Dylan Thomas the best but I immediately thought of the poet too. His poetry is amazing so it's a good association.

4N6s · July 2015

Kellan

cfletch88 · July 2015

Dylan. That's my brothers name and he always loved it :-)

jessnjuan07 · July 2015

Dylan Thomas!

eliztheforrizz · July 2015

I was going to mention Dylan Thomas the poet as well. Not a bad person to be named after, but just thought you should know. I prefer Cameron Thomas.

JulieK79 · July 2015

I like them all but like Dylan the best.

Zimger · July 2015

I like Dylan.

stlmomof2 · July 2015

I *do* like Cameron a lot, but I also like Dylan as well. I say go with either... but I'm gonna be different and vote for Cameron.

LoveIsOwlYouNeed · July 2015

I like Dylan the best, but I also thought of the poet. I like the poet, but something you should be prepared to hear.

Then I like Cameron, then Kellen but I have a bad association with Kellen, which I admit.

MarchABC · July 2015

I see a lot of Camerons/Camdens (nn Cam) in our area and the name has totally lost it's shine for me. I like the other two better. Kellen is slightly more interesting.

mbecca11 · July 2015

I'd say:
1. Kellen
2. Cameron
3. Dylan

I agree with PP... Wait till you see the handsome little man and you'll just know.

FreshBakedBrownies · July 2015

I think of Dylan as dated ~90s. I can't dissociate it from the character on 90210. I'd go with one of the others!

Same here

holli0801 · July 2015

Kellen is a great Irish name. One of my favorites. Kellen Thomas sounds great. So it clearly gets my vote!!
