What do you think of these names, due a baby boy in a couple of months so just putting the feelers out there. We quite like these names but can't decide between the two. Are they too unusual?

OP posts:

Thanks

I don't think they're too unusual at all. Why not wait until he's here and then decide which one suits him best?

I like Caspian. Cassian to me seems a bit feminine, I just see Cassie and Sian in it.

Thanks

I think they’re both lovely. We nearly named DS2 Cassian but someone I know used it a couple of months before so it didn’t feel right using it. And her Cassian suits the name much more than my DS would have!

Thanks

I feel Caspian is more wearable due to associations to Caspar. Caspian also sounds right, while Cassian is so soft sounding.
