Dylan or Jack?

[Pingpongparker]

Any other name suggestions of a similar vibe welcome!

Both are nice, but I prefer Jack of the two. A very solid, 'boyish' classic. Dylan is ok, but has a much softer sound. So it depends what you're looking for.

Suggestions:-

Charlie
George
Ethan
Oscar
Harry
Finn
Leo
Max
Thomas
Oliver
Samuel

Both are lovely, but Dylan is one of my favourite names - not too overused yet familiar and friendly sounding.

@Pingpongparker , Dylan has 'naughty boy' vibes. I don't like it.

Dylan is lovely, and not too many around. Jack also nice but their are millions, if that bothers you, every year at my school has 5 or 6. I only know a couple of Dylans, abd they are lovely, hard working boys.

Dylan isn't unusual and there are a lots of middle-aged ones in Wales.

I like Jack but I’m put off it as so common. I’d choose Dylan out of those two.

Jack was THE most popular name for years. There are tens of thousands of them already….

Dylan has a naughty vibe imo

Not Dylan.

Dylan is gorgeous. But how do you pronounce it?

Naughty boy vibes? What rot - rude adult vibes.

Or maybe honest adult/teacher vibes?

It's not gorgeous. It either sounds like dil or dull.

I have a Dylan and he’s lovely 😂

Much prefer Dylan. A really lovely name.

Honestly I like both names, but I've always liked Jack for the brief no nonsense sound of it.
It's short, and you can't make it shorter, it's a diminutive for John which is classic, and could be used by your DS in the future if he preferred it.

Don't like Dylan so I'd go for Jack.

I prefer Dylan over Jack

Dylan is s beautiful name with a beautiful meaning 🌊

Jack is ok. Bit boring.

How are you pronouncing Dylan? The proper way (Dullan), or the wrong way (Dillan)?

I love them both but voted for Dylan.

I know siblings called jack and Dylan! Great names. I’m Welsh so biased towards Dylan!

Love both.

How about Jack Dylan?

Jack for me. Timeless and solid. It’s not as popular now as it was 10 years ago and it’s not a trend name either. Dylan sounds a bit wet to me and somehow feels more dated.

Both great names, prefer Jack by a little bit.

Dylan is great, was on our boy name shortlist. Jack is a bit meh and every other boy at DCs primary school seems to be called Jack especially the naughty ones.

I really like the name Dylan, particularly the Welsh pronunciation but also love the English way.

Jack is a great name, lovely sound, strong solid, one pronunciation, but it's been so well used over the decades/centuries it's now just a generic term for a man - Jack of all trades, let's hit the road Jack, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, Jack the lad etc etc etc.
