Re: Tavian
in reply to a message by NobodyOfConsequence
I thought it must be at least based on Octavian.
I'd like it better if the name Octavian didn't exist.
But I like it pretty well on its own, if it were "just" Tavian.
I don't like the idea of nn Tay or Tavi, though. Tave, maybe. Like Dave. heh
It's listed as African-American usage in the submitted database. It didn't strike me that way because I thought "Octavian nn Tavian, how synthetic?" but I can see how it's in that style, like Javion and Trayvon.
