Re: What do you think of these names I'd consider naming my (hypothetical) son?

I don't like Ambrose. Its pronounced "Am-brahz." I wish it was "Am-broes."
I like Briar a lot.
I don't like Florus.
Gael is okay, I prefer Gale even if its a girl spelling.
Kaolin, if said like Caelan (kee-lin), it's nice. I wouldn't use that spelling though. No one where I live would know how to say it or spell it.
Lachlan's easiest pronunciation for me is the British one.
I don't know how to say Mochan so I can't say anything about it.
I like Theodore a whole bunch, Theo as a nickname and full name too.

I personally would pronounce Ambrose like "Am-broes" even if it is wrong, since most names have been "bastardized".
I do like Gale, but I just like Gael a bit more.
Mochán is really confusing. I believe it's "Mo-han", but some people say "Moch-on", so I'm not sure.

Ambrose is pronounced to rhyme with Rose in British English; neither version is even slightly bastardised, it's just a regional variation.
Oh yes, that's why I used the quotation marks, since I couldn't think of the right term.
It rhymes with Rose in my General American accent too.
