[Opinions] Re: Wolfgang
Wolfgang is definitely a distinguished name, which would certainly make your son stand out (in a good way) among his more trendily and/or commonly named peers. However, I personally prefer Wolfram instead - it's a bit shorter and sounds a bit 'rougher' than Wolfgang (thus making it seem a tad more manly to me).An other good alternative IMHO would also be Wolfert, which is the Frisian form of the ancient Germanic name Wulfhard (derived from wolf "wolf" and hard "brave, hardy").

Wolfram!Whoa, you just rocked my world. Wolfram is great, if really unusual. Although more unexpected, it also does seem a little less 'heavy.' Also, it's hard to beat Wolf-Raven for meaning. Probably our other two boy name ideas are a little more expected and down-to-earth than either Wolfgang or Wolfram. But I can't say I am not tempted.Hmmm.
