[Opinions] Re: Christian
I like the name Christian despite being a non-Christian. I don't think it would be weird for non-religious people to use it. Somehow, Christian doesn't seem as overwhelmingly religious as many of the "hip Bible" names that are currently super hot, like Levi or Elijah or even Jacob. It is very handsome, and somehow Christians avoid getting shortened to Chris the way Christophers are. I've never met a Christian that didn't go by Christian-in-full.Some combo ideas:Christian Atticus
Christian Oliver
Christian Lewis, Christian Louis
Christian Wesley
Christian Conrad
Christian Eric
Christian Dashiell
Christian Lyall
Christian Oscar
Christian Rex

Hip Bible names are strong and awesome. I love Levi, Elijah, and Jacob.

Thank you! Yeah I was actually afraid that Christian might get shortened to Chris (a NN I'm not crazy for) but I'm happy to hear of your "Christian-in-full" experience - the Christian I know has never gone by Chris either. Christian Oliver sounds very regal. I'm not all that fond of Lyall but I like it in this combo and it has alerted me to another possible combo with a similar MN that I love - Christian Llyr (or Christian Lir)
