Like Cassius- have it earmarked as a contender for the as yet imaginary next one.

I know a female Cass, short for Cassandra.

I love them both. I wanted Cassius for DC3, but my surname has the SS sound in it, so it sounded preposterous.

Not keen. I like Casper though.

Not fond, sorry. I always think of 'Yon Cassius has a lean and hungry look...such men are dangerous.' Not heard Cassian before - I like it a bit better than Cassius but not hugely tbh.

I quite like Cassius.

Cassian is too much like hessian.

I have a completely irrational fear of having a child with a speech impediment who cannot say their own name. For that reason I have not called my children Wodewick or Thamuel (well, that and the fact I have 2 girls). Cathiuth falls into that category for me, I'm afraid.

Love Cassius is on our list not so keen on Cassian.
