We are expecting our second little boy and our favourite name is Lysander. What do people think of Lysander?

I like it but I think it is quite unusual.

its a lovely name, my only thoughts are there are no good nicknames and it feels quite a mouthful even thought only 3 syllables

Lyce- makes me thing of Lice
Sandy- Female
Andy- ok

Sorry, it's not a name I would choose. I think it's so uncommon it's always going to provoke queries about it and many may query the spelling too

Felix is nice as it's a well known name but not too common so I would choose a similar type of name. Jasper and Gabriel are the first two to spring to mind. I also really like Kester, the Scottish form of Christopher.
