Re: Lucian and Ronan
in reply to a message by SJayne
I find both names to be soft but I think they still work. Ronan more than Lucian. I prefer Rowan over Ronan, not really sure why, I don't think I like the hard "n" in the middle of the name.
As for Lucian, I pronounce it LOO-see-ahn, and I like it because I like all "Luce" names in general. The way you pronounce it I can see why it sounds like lotion, there is little distinguishing the two. I feel that it wouldn't work, there's just something about it, I think maybe because it's really close to Lucifer, and that name gets a lot of bad feedback from just about everybody. It's nice on paper.
