Now, just in general both names, with my accent, end being pronounced completely different with Bastion sounds like an entirely new name not even related to Sebastian. It's closer to Sebastien, though. I personally prefer the sp. Bastian because I say Sebastian seb-ash-un so Bastian, to me, is bash-un, sometimes bash-tun. But Bastion is, to me, bas-tee-on. lol.

Not to mention, with the sp. Bastion I think of the actual word (which, honestly, wasn't even in my vocab until I started watching Little Britain lol), bastion:

---

1. A projecting part of a fortification.
2. A well-fortified position.
3. One that is considered similar to a defensive stronghold: You are a bastion of strength. See Synonyms at bulwark.

n 1: a group that defends a principle; "a bastion against corruption"; "the last bastion of communism" 2: a stronghold into which people could go for shelter during a battle [syn: citadel] 3: projecting part of a rampart or other fortification

Lou: I thought you didn't like violence. You said it was the last bastion of moral cowardice.
Andy: Yeah, I know...

I think I put too much in this response because part of me feels like I'm not making any sense and just being silly. lol. Hopefully somebody will get where I'm coming from.
