Julian?

[ParsleyTheLion1]

What do you think of this name? What does it evoke to you?

[MeganChips]

I love it!

It evokes images of my Dad's handsome friend which is probably not very helpful, sorry

[ChildlessAndOK]

I love it too.

[ParsleyTheLion1]

Ha ha! I can cope with handsome, definitely....

I was hoping debonair may play too....

[SirChenjin]

I'm currently reading the Famous Five series to DC3 and it evokes an image of a stuck up, bossy, know it all

Like Jules though - the bloke from Devon on DIY SOS is called Jules and he's lovely and a complete hoot.

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

I like it - am a big Famous Five fan! :)

[ParsleyTheLion1]

I like Jules too because I ADORE jewellery and gemstones.....so phonetical link
I too read Famous 5 but had forgotten there was a Julian

[TheFridgePickersKnickers]

Dick George Ann and Timothy (Timmy) the dog

Another big famous five fan!

[TheFridgePickersKnickers]

Julian was the older sensible one!

[Vixxfacee]

Really hate it.

[Sprongpicnic]

Excellent name

[SirChenjin]

He was the PITA know-it-all

[wombthereitis]

It's a bit flowery for me. I prefer Jude.

[ParsleyTheLion1]

whats PITA?

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

I rather fancied him when I was 10. Don't tell anybody.

[nectarini1983]

Not for me...I always think 'camp'. Same as I think for Adrian...IMO

[RudeElf]

I think assange when i hear julian. Sorry.

[ParsleyTheLion1]

mmm...thats what I fear too RudeElf.
but then I hope that by the time Julian is teenager Assange will be minor blip unknown to his contemporaries. here's hoping...
Maybe he'll still be holed up in the embassy!!

[LittleBlackTrilby]

To me it's a very wet, weedy, effete upper middle class RP type name. The kind of teenage boy with a floppy fringe who clicks his fingers to get a waitresses' attention.

[Mouthfulofquiz]

That gorgeous actor from The Green Wing who played Dr Mac is called Julian. It's a great name!

[RudeElf]

Yes and unlikely his peers will know who julian assange was/is by the time they are old enough to care.

I'm sure there are lovely famous julians too. Julian clary is the only one i can think of. Or julian simmons.

[ParsleyTheLion1]

ha ha! I chuckled at that description of the floppy haired teen.... I could cope with the floppy, rakish hair...

Are you describing sebastian flyte out of ... oo... I've forgotten! arggh!

[ParsleyTheLion1]

Julian Barnes one of my fave authors

[LittleBlackTrilby]

I know the thing you mean but can't remember the name, have never seen it.

And I bloody hate Julian Barnes' writing.

Different strokes!

[MidnightVelvetthe5th]

It says camp and fussy to me
