[Opinions] Re: Killian/Cillian
in reply to a message by Barbie
I used to be lukewarm about this name; however, the actor Cillian Murphy has won me over to the I-like-and-appreciate-it side. Sometimes, all it takes is a positive association!
I will admit that, in English, Cillian isn't the most intuitive spelling, but, with that said, I dislike Killian because of the "kill-" part of the name. To me, it looks like "kill Ian". Thus, Cillian is the spelling I would choose.
