Agree on a boys name .

If you both love it then go for Rory. I like Max but not keen on Ronan personally

Rory, definitely, you both like it. Max sounds a bit like a pet name, and Ronan makes me think of the opening bars of 'No Matter What' by Boyzone.

I expect you know that Ronan means 'little seal' in Gaelic and so has magial/mythical connotations - lovely stories of selkies and suchlike.

As earlier poster says, would probably work best in Ireland or Scotland.

Ronan is my favourite boys name and if I ever have a ds, he will be called Ronan.

I also like Rory and Max though.

I'm not much help Grin

I don't think of Max as a dogs' name (but I have a 14yo Max myself )
Rory is cute for a little boy but would it be as cute on an adult?

Ronan - nah.

I love Max.
I can't get excited about Ronan but there's nothing wrong with it either.
I don't like Rory.
