[Opinions] Re: What do you think of these names I'd consider naming my (hypothetical) son?
in reply to a message by Tatsugiri
Ambrose - It's okay, but I strongly tie it to a character from a TV show (Monk), so I can't really see it on anyone else. I prefer Anthony. They feel like they're in a similar category. The nickname Bo is pretty cute. Overall, probably like a 5/10
Briar - I like Briar. For girls, it's my 35th favorite name. I haven't thought about it much on guys, but I think it could be cool! 8/10
Florus - It looks cool. As the name of a character, it would be perfect. On a real person, I'm not sure. Unfortunately, I tend to avoid most 'Flor-' names because they just make me think of fluoride. But that's just me. 7/10
Gael - Like the name, don't really like the character. 7/10
Kaolin - I like it to an extent. Again, maybe better for a character, but either way it's pretty nice. It reminds me of the type of names a knight in a fantasy book would have. Like Kaladin. 7/10
Lachlan - I've been intrigued with this name for a while. 8/10
Mochán - I'm not entirely sure how you pronounce this. It looks nice, but probably not something I'd use. 6/10
Theodore - It's decent. No strong feelings but I have some fondness for it. Although I like the sound 'Thea/Theo' I think I prefer the nickname Teddy for Theodore. 7/10
Overall, I like your taste in names!

I've never heard of the character from the Monk(or even of Monk), so I can't speak on that personally. Anthony is a good name, but I feel like it's a bit common... then again I like the name Theodore, so I really shouldn't be talking.
... Now all 'Flor-' names are ruined... kidding, but that is unfortunate.
I'm 99% sure Mochán is pronounced "Mo-han", but plenty of people pronounce their names differently than how they are traditionally.
Teddy is a super cute nickname, and I love the association with Roosevelt!
I'm glad you like my taste in names! :)
