What boys names instantly say friendly / approachable / an all round decent human being? :)
Just for fun!

Yes I always think of Andy as a nice guy name! Dylan is an interesting one I don’t know any grown up Dylan’s but I always associate it with a bad boy image although actually my friends little boy is the cutest and he’s Dylan!

I agree Andys are always lovely (I'm early 40s).
