[Opinions] Re: Gabriel and John
in reply to a message by Llewella
I prefer Gabriel. I think it has a warm and friendly feeling - the same feeling I get from names like Daniel, Thomas and yeah - Benjamin. John is pretty bland and boring and a bit more..harsh, probably?
Have you settled on a FN? I know you were thinking about Alexander earlier and I'm rooting for that one. It's one of my favorites. :)
We’ve all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are.

First name is Alexander, yes. It's funny because I see John as more warm and in line with things like Benjamin, while Gabriel seems more... independent? It's not unfriendly, but I've never thought of as very warm and cuddly, and thus never thought much about it at all. But it's been standing out to me this whole time and its big advantage is being a G name (same initial as my dad, since we won't be using his actual name).
