Re: Evander, Leander, Otto, and Lana
I like
Evander and
Leander. I'd use
Evan and
Leo as nicknames.
Otto and
August start with the same vowel sound in my accent and are much too close for brothers, but maybe they sound different in your accent. Either way,
Otto is a bad
German stereotype IMO. I don't care for it.
Lana is such a snotty, nasty name to me.
Lana is the meanest, snobbiest cheerleader. When you add in pronunciation issues (LAH-na? LAN-ah? LANE-ah?), the fact that it spells "anal" backwards, and the nicknamey/insubstantial feel, I hate it. Sorry.
