I can't deside if I like Caspian or Adrian better for a future son....
Can you think of any good middle names? I'd prefer european names :)
Btw: siblings will be Romeo Alexander, Tristan August, Lily Cornelia & Lucia Victoria

I think Caspian is definitely better. I'm not brave enough to use it myself but I think it's lovely and it would be great to see on someone elses child. Adrian is much more common and boring, and also a little dated. Also Caspian is a little more interesting and goes better with your other names, particularly Romeo and Tristan.

Don't know how Adrian would be considered dated... It's in the top 100 in a # of countries and I checked the American stats on it and it was much lower years ago and has been on a major climb. Caspian has too much of a pirate or sailor image for my liking.

I didn't look at the popularities, but I've never met an Adrian under 40. I've looked at the stats now and it's not in the top 100 in the UK, so I don't know how popular it is here...

I don't know oodles of them personally myself... When I was a child, I knew 1 who's prob'ly in his 40s now and when I was a teen and young adult, I knew 1 who's in his 30s now... It's not one I think has ever been overly high in popularity in Canada. My cousin went to school w/ an Adrianne (g) who'd be in her mid-30s now and I had a gal a couple grades below me (so also mid-30s) named Adrienne... Know an Adrianna who just turned 30. Adrianna seems to have a young feel to it which may have aided Adrian in gaining some popularity since it along w/ Adriana are in the top 200 in the States... and Adriana has popularity in other countries too.

I love both equally, but I think that Caspian goes better with the sib names.
