HelpRe: Louis or Julian
in reply to a message by carmags
While I like Louis (pr. LOO-ee), Julian has always captivated me. Sure, it's classic, beautiful and has a strong history, but it evokes an image of one who is successful, confident, educated, cultured, intelligent, self-assured, etc. I could go on and on. As a bonus, I've never known a single one so I don't find it trendy or wannabe anything. I've been accused by my dh of liking 'soft' names for males (Adrian, Julian, Leo, Oliver, Sebastian) but I'm totally fine with that because I consider all of these names to be quite strong and decidedly masculine. OTOH, he loves Ian which can also fall into the same category by some.
Bottom line: either complements Peter. You can't go wrong here.
ETA that because I have known men/boys named Louis / Lewis (Lou / Louie) my entire life, Julian seems fresher in my mind. I've never paid attention to their popularity statistics so I'm not sure if that assumption is true.
