I like this name! I knew a boy named Landon in school, but my best friend has named her girl this! We also had a female teacher in high school named Landon. I like it for a girl only if it’s paired with a very feminine name. A great name!

Landon Donovan is an American retired soccer player who played for the Los Angeles Galaxy of Major League Soccer and the United States National soccer team. He is the top goal scorer for both of these teams as of writing.
Landon has been my favorite boy's name since I was 10. It all started with the movie A Walk to Remember... the main character's name is Landon and I have been in love with this name ever since. Fast forward 17 years later and I still plan on using this name for a son. I'm a little disappointed to read in the comments section that Landon is being used for a girl's name? Why not use London for a girls name - I think that would be better suited. I like how Landon doesn't really have a nickname, but if I were to find a nickname, I think Land would be cool! Landon means "meadow" and anytime I see a beautiful meadow, I instantly think of the name Landon and my hopes of raising a son named Landon. I have changed my thoughts on the middle name ever since I was ten but have "landed" (haha) on Landon Joseph - my husband's name.
I totally, in my opinion, dislike this name. Out of all the names you pick this? It’s been run by females.. there’s gotta be a change in much better names!

Honestly this name sounds wimpy on a grown man. I picture a low testosterone kid who always gets bullied at school and dresses like a geek.

I can only imagine a little boy with this name.

It's a good name but people will pronounce it Lan-DON, not Lan-DEN.
There's just something about this name that doesn't work, Landon... I don't know it just doesn't seem like an appealing name. I prefer Brandon but that's just me. Oh and I would also spell this name Landen rather than Landon, it looks more like a name that way.

Landon sounds weird to me, and I didn't know it was popular in the US.
I like the name; it feels strong, can age well, and sounds like the name of a cool guy who doesn't take life too seriously and jokes around a lot. It's not a favorite name, and I dislike how common it is, but I still think it's a good name.
I really love this name. It has an intriguing pronunciation and it is not that common. Two thumbs up and a name I would definitely give to one of my children, even if I live in a place where it is mostly French that is spoken.
It's not a bad name, but it sounds like one of these names elitist parents name their son, who of course is sent to an expensive boarding school, and plenty of high expectations are bestowed upon him.
My friend uses this name as a girl's name. I don't like it for a girl or boy, sorry!

Landon is a nice name for a boy. I also like the name Landry.

I like this name. But I'm unsure if I would name my son Landon. It's a strong name and all, but my friend's son is Landon and I think it would make him feel overwhelmed.

LOVE this name! This is going to be my son's name: Landon Jai Blythe. I always loved London, but it only seemed fair to call my kid Landon, because if he ever goes to London (the city) it would seem stupid, like, "Hey London, welcome to London!" So I guess Landon sounded nicer.

One fictional bearer of the name is Landen Parke-Laine, a character in Jasper Fforde's Thursday Next books. He's a Crimean War vet with one leg who's eradicated (made non-existent) halfway through the series.
