Between two boy’s names

Just found out we are having a little boy. Have a DS already, who has a fairly uncommon one syllable welsh name.

Name choices are Evander or Cassius. I appreciate they are quite full on, but we would only use an abbreviation day to day, probably Evan / Cass. The longer versions would just give him choice later on.

Any preference?

I really like Cassius, but not Evander.

I had no idea about Wayne Rooney! Ha!

Thanks for the thoughts. Guess there are lots of nn choices for Evander, like Vander, Ev, Van... Evan just sprang to mind first.

snowydays - I know, totally coincidence! It’s a rainbow baby so the fighter association is ok by me. DH now suggests rocky...

Slightly prefer Evander, and I like Evan as a shortening.

I like Evander but not keen on Evan
I like Cassius but don't like Cass
So not much help.

Just be aware that Wayne Rooneys new baby is called Cass..if that makes any difference to your chouce. Love the name Evan..haven't heard of Evander.
