Dillon

[Dutch212]

What do people think if Dillon?
Is it normally spelt Dylan or are either OK (prefer Dillon spelling)?
I used to love the name but am worried it has become really common. Opinions??
Thanks

Ah yes, Dickon
Dylan if you want a Welsh name, although it's pronounced differently from Dillon.

I know a female Dillon.

Thought it was just the female spelling since... appears not!

I prefer the Dylan spelling. I know a Dillon and everyone assumes the other spelling. It must be annoying to have a name that is not unusual but that you have to spell out.

Most welsh people would pronounce it in the anglicised way, I think. So Dylan and Dillon would be pretty much the same?

I have an eleven yr old Dylan spelt that way, don't like the other spelling.
It's funny this name is common some say yet one of my other boys names is posh, another is a dogs name and my fourth son has a 'gansta' name according to mnet....

Even spelling it Dylan people frequently spell it wrong Btw. And it is becoming more popular as a girls name esp in the Us.

I have a Dylan and some people still write birthday cards to Dillon.
pipstrella I hope if we met I'd be able to hold a conversation with you! I can with most people. Or maybe our cultural circles are just too different.

Maybe they are, maybe they aren't. I was talking about how it is culturally round here. I don't know where you live
