Shane or Shein for a boy?

Shane.

TheoriginalLEM · 12/01/2020 21:41

Nether because the shanes I know have been, err, problematic. So that puts me off but shein? Is that even a thing?

mathanxiety · 12/01/2020 21:43

Shein is not a name.

DivGirl · 12/01/2020 21:43

Shein like the cheap online clothing store?!

Shane. It's a bit of a "Gary", but the better of the two.

Kirstyaka · 12/01/2020 21:46

What about Shayne?

Shein like the cheap online clothing store?!*

First thing I thought too. m.shein.co.uk/?ref=www&rep=dir&ret=m

Shein like the shitty clothes?

Robstersgirl · 12/01/2020 22:07

If honesty’s what you want, I think all variations are very dated.

Justmuddlingalong · 12/01/2020 22:07

A 1970s name. For a German shepherd.

Muddlingalongalone · 12/01/2020 22:08

Sorry OP also thought of the clothes retailer.
Shane for me although not hugely keen.

Elouera · 12/01/2020 22:10

Sorry, but both are awful! Shane is better of the 2 as the other would be mispronounced and misspelt all the time.

Andsbk · 12/01/2020 22:14

Thank you for your reply guys
I ve just change my mind :))) I don't like it anymore.
I m pregnant with a boy and I don't have any idea about the name

Andsbk · 12/01/2020 22:20

I just know I would like a short and strong name. Easy to be pronounced

Aidan is lovely

Callthemidwifeplease · 12/01/2020 22:48

Sean

MountainPeakGeek · 12/01/2020 22:48

If you kind of liked the sound of Shane, Sean is an obvious (and far nicer) alternative.

Astronica · 12/01/2020 22:52

I agree with pp that Sean is a better alternative if you like those sounds. Aidan is okay, and better than Shane, but I do think you should stick to Aidan spelling.
