I like it a lot :)

And Dylan is one of my favourite boys names too!

Everyone else will love it.

I strongly dislike it. I hate the hard 'G' sound, and I find it dated and bleurgh. Sorry.

I really like the name Megan. I couldn't ever use it though as one of my best friends has the same name. It's not over-used either which is a bonus!

I like it but not pronounced Mee-gan.

I love it but then I'm Welsh and have welsh names for both my DDs.

It's been overly-used in the last 15 years and sounds eggy to me!

Love it and love the way the names work together. They are both family names on the Welsh side of our family.

I like it - was on my list for DD but eventually vetoed due to its popularity

good choice of name

I have a relative called Megan and she's so incredibly lovely that I can't help but love the name (and it's not a name I would dislike in the first place)

I like both of your names. And congratulations!

Two of my three are Dylan and Megan so clearly am going to say yes, good plan. Megan has fallen down the ratings greatly in the last few years too so you get few young ones about. Was in the top 10, 15-20 years ago and now in around the 70s which means only 600-700 a year.
