Thoughts on Lysander

[17caterpillars1mouse]

Please

Too poncey

Shakespearean and try hard. He'll also end up being called Ly which isn't great.

A British Grenadeeeeer

How about Leander?

I knew a Lysander years ago. He was posh, tall, artsy, a snappy dresser. His name suited him down to the ground.

I have to say that it's a hard name to imagine on most of the men & boys I know, though.

Oh noooo.

It's nice in its own way but nooo.

How about Leo, Sebastian, Lucien?

Gorgeous name. Good choice.

It's definitely one that needs to have a surname which matches otherwise it could sound very silly. Too posh sounding for my taste though.

Love it

Jilly Cooper cad too

Luciano?

I think he'd just get Zanda. So why not Xander or Alexander ? Or embrace it and have Lysander known as Zanda.

Wet and a bit overly posh, imo.

Only if you are ridiculously posh and will be buying him a string of polo ponies later in life.

Not if you live on a council estate in Moss Side perhaps.

I like it.
