Opinions on the name Julian? I love it as a potential brothers name for Andreas. However I'm worried about how my family will view it. Ive already heard my dad make fun of it once before, he thinks it is feminine. However, he thought Domininc was weird when my sister chose it for her son, he only calls him "Nic". I dont even want to hear his opinions on Andreas (I'll probably end up with an "Andy" thanks to him). I already know I cant please him, unless I opt for James and Matthew, which I'm not going to. Looking at the popularity rankings for Julian, it is obvious that it has come back into style. What do you picture when you hear the name Julian? I find it elegant and handsome, without being stuffy and too formal. I'd use Julian Edgar in honor of my grandpa.
