Hunter or Dechlan?

[CatsArePeople]

DC4, if girl - she wil be Katherine. But boy? tel me

[JaneJeffer]

Declan but not your spelling of it

[Classica]

Declan?

[DramaAlpaca]

Declan. This spelling.

[Dic]

Did you mean Declan? If so that. Not hunter.

[TreePoser]

Declan.

The irish spelling is Deaghlán I think but just go for Declan. That's easy for everybody.

[TreePoser]

yeh, Hunter is terrible. I literally see a HUNTER, out there with a spear. It's very aggressive.

[Classica]

I don't personally mind some of the dreaded 'American' names but Hunter just reminds me of this cheesy bloke.

[Classica]

I am hearing Dechlan in a Scouse accent.

[Tisyphone]

Declan or Déaglán.

🤣🤣🤣
I loved Hunter as a teenager! Older me, not so much.

OP Declan is lovely. Is Dechlan a typo or do you pronounce it differently?

[Sussyknowsthemeaningoflife]

Declan
Hunter makes me think of Joe Biden's terrible terrible son. 😔

[ChagSameachDoreen]

They're both appalling names

[Depakote]

Hunter is really not a nice name. If the association of killing for pleasure does not deter you...

[SpringIntoChaos]

Neither...Hunter is awful (very American, in the style of Parker and Jackson, where they use surnames for first names).

Declan is asking for a lifetime of being called Dec (Ant and Dec 🤷‍♀️).

Your spelling of it is also ridiculous.

Think again OP...and think of your child as an adult being called the name.

[stuntbubbles]

Katherine is such a nice name, but Hunter and Dechlan are both horrendous, sorry.

[RuthW]

Declan

[user1492757084]

Hunter is too over used right now.

Declan is the better of the two.

[Annoyedwithmyself]

Declan is nice, as is the Irish spelling upthread. Hunter is a bit naff, soz.

[Strugglingtodomybest]

Declan

[KirstenBlest]

@Classica

I am hearing Dechlan in a Scouse accent.

Declan.

[ClinkeyMonkey]

I'd lose the 'h' from Dechlan and go with that. Good name. I don't like Hunter at all.

[Runningdownthehill22]

I don’t like either sorry but definitely not Hunter. Katherine is lovely!

[PancakesWithCheese]

Does Declan have an H?

[TheMess]

Hunter really isn't a nice name. It's not a pleasant word, when you think about it. Also, what do you shorten it to? Hunt?

[ofwarren]

Hunter, the same as pp gives me images of Biden, Gladiators and actual hunters
Declan makes me think of Ant and Dec but it's much better than Hunter.
