Andreas, Anders, or Andrew? (m)
Which one appeals the most to you, and why?
If none of them do, what is your favorite An- name, for a boy?
Hmm. Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

I’d probably go with Andrew because I’ve had some good friends with this name.
I've never enjoyed Andrew - it always seems weak and wimpy. Anders would be the best of the three, but where I live it's a dictionary word meaning 'otherwise'. Andreas is too firmly linked to European languages I don't speak! Plus, the only Andreas person I've ever known was thoroughly unlikeable.
My favourite male An- name would I suppose be Antony. Nothing else rings a bell at all. Not Anthony, though - I wouldn't take the risk of having it sound like Anth instead of Ant.

Andrew. Strong and usable.
Andreas is most appealing. -s endings cound good to me in general. 'Anders' literally is the word for 'different' in Dutch,so very odd to me as a name (and then there's Anders Breivik, which certainly doesn't help the matter). Andrew isn;t all that appealing to me, though not a bad name. Andreas sounds nice to me.I also really like Andor as far as An- boys names go.
Andrew. Again, a name I'd actually use. The other two are just a bit too exotic (Andreas) or painfully hipsterish (Anders.)
