What do you think of Osian as a boy's name? It's listed on Mumsnet's Baby Name Finder.

Is this the Welsh version of the Irish Oisin.

I suppose it's what you're used to, but it sounds a bit weird to me. Makes me understand how Oisin might seem to somebody who wasn't familiar with it.

Love it! It's DS1's middle name and I wish we'd been brave enough to use it as his first name as we'd originally intended.

A very close relative of mine is called Oisin - it's Irish. Getting more popular.

Its Welsh by the way!

Puts me in mind of Osama actually, sorry...

Quite cool actually... doesn't have any particular connotations for me anyway. Could be a bit try-hard...?
