I like the name
Julian a lot too and to me it's quite masculine, but in a softer sounding way. Some male names are masculine but have a harder sound to them.
Hope that makes sense! I don't know why a boy named
Julian would be more of a target for teasing than one named
Jacob or
William or (God forbid!) Caidyn! I don't think a
Julian really needs a nn, but I guess just J would work. I think there are many names that would work as a mn with
Julian, it just depends what you are after I suppose.
