Need Help Deciding on Baby Boys Name
I am due next Thursday with my second son. Hubby and I have pinned down two names, but just can't decide which we like best. My son is named Noah and the two baby names we are considering are Daniel and Dylan.
Which do you like best? Do you have a great name suggestion for me to consider?
Thanks for your input Mama's!

Hi, there are way too many Dylan's out there. Maybe it's just me but that name reminds me of 90210 (the original). I like Daniel but I would want my son to be called Daniel. If you call him that most people will follow. Congratulations!

L.,
Congratulations! My vote is Dylan Thomas. I think it has a nice sound to it or Daniel James. Hope this helps and I hope that you have a wonderful, safe delivery!

I am biased to Daniel, just cuz its my hubby's name...But as the previous mom noted everyone under the son has a nickname for him from DJ, Danny...Dan. No one calls him Daniel for anything. Its funny when I talk to his friends and family from his home town I call him Danny, but I've never called him Danny personally its always been Dan. But anyway, that's what his parents wanted they just wanted to give him a "professional" name for when he was older.
Although our friend just name their lil one Daniel and no ones shortened it yet......Just some input I know how hard it is to decide on names.
Congratulations!!

At my last job at any given time I worked with 3 Daniels. Maybe it's just me, but I am very sick of that name and I've never been partial to the name Danny either. I do like Dylan, but one potential drawback to that name is that recently I've been hearing of a lot of baby girls named Dylan. Personally I still think of it as a boys name, but it all depends on how you feel about it. Congratulations on your soon to be new baby boy! Good luck!

Dylan is my favorite, but I agree I like Daniel too. Hard choice. Both are common these days, but if you don't mind that you've got some good names. Here are a few I loved.
Gavin Dean
Mason Austin
Christian Reed
Jadon Gabriel
God bless!

Hi L.,
Dylan is very common these days. Daniel is a strong name, but people will call him Danny or Dan. I love the name Noah and if you like "N" names, how about NELSON OR NEIL?
Congratulations....how exciting to welcome new life!
Blessings to you ALL.....
