Thanks ladies still very undecided it seems most people seem to prefer Dylan or Flynn. Is dylan really getting popular? We live in Devon and not heard of many Dylan's tbh x

Why not Oliver?

I wanted Flynn for DS but DH said it was wrong to name my children after animated characters that I fancy Grin

So my vote is for Flynn.

Flynn Oliver is lovely, but I think Flynn Hunter has a nicer sound to it. Just personal preference though and yours is what matters!

I vote Lucien Oliver all the way!! I am biased though as I have a 3 year old Lucien. It's a name that had mixed reactions (on here and with people generally). I am glad we were brave and stuck with it. What we have found is that it is a name that really "grows" on people. I think that is the case with a lot of the slightly more unusual names. The original detracters of the name now tell me that they really love it. My little Lucien is a curly haired ball of energy/mischief who looks like an angel and the name is just perfect for him.

Dylan is lovely, but it will definitely date I think. There a large number where we are (Sussex).

Flynn is nice too but I don't think it is as distinguished or as strong as Lucien

My ten year old is called Dylan so I am very biased. Very lovely, strong name!! :)

I get the 'Tangled' thing!! If Flynn were real he would be lush! blush

I really like Flynn, Dylan's alright but I don't like Lucien at all.

I have a Dylan and don't think there are anymore in his school I still love the name 5 years on he is a very gentle and loving child prefer Dylan Oliver.

I am also biased with a Dylan. He's 8 and never met another one until this year one has started in reception. where we are (Surrey) Flynn (and Fin/Finlay) are way more common. I also like Lucien. Don't like Flynn.

I have a Dylan he is 18 and when he was born it was really popular.Im in Dublin btw.But there was a glut of them the.I like Flynn better than Lucien.Reminds me of Lucifer not a good thing really.
