HelpRe: Gabriel.
in reply to a message by Link
I quite like it but it's getting/gotten way too popular lately. :(
I find it odd that people dislike names like Galen because of the "gay" sound, but Gabriel doesn't bother them (neither one bothers me, btw).

Funny you should say that
about Galen and Gabriel. I know you're right about the "gay-" sound, which distresses me. (I like the name Gaylord too, but there's not a snowball's chance in hell of that ever being accepted in the mainstream - oh well *sigh*). But I really like both names, despite that Gabriel seems to be getting more attention lately. I like Galen for the medical connection. I think it's loads more appealing than Hippocrates! *LOL* I used the name Galen for a doctor character in a piece of alternate-history fiction. It just really caught my attention that you mention Galen because of that medical connection. =D
