Question for people who don't care about name meanings?

If you had 2 names you loved equally, and couldn't choose which one you think sounds better, would you then turn to the meaning?



The meaning of names doesn't matter to me atall, however, for example, 2 names I love equally are Cameron and Declan, Cameron means crooked nose, whereas Declan means full of goodness. If I was actually having a boy, I think this would maybe sway it for me, if I liked the sounds the same, Declan has a much nicer meaning



Would this be the case with you? Or would it not help you choose atall? Do you have any examples of 2 names you like that are similar to this?Question for people who don't care about name meanings?
That is a good point. I also do not care about the meaning of names, but I am also stuck on three girl names I equally love. Alexis which means Defender Of The People, Sophia which means Wisdom and Madelyn which means woman from Magdala. Now I have something to think about.
It would almost absolutely be the case with me. Let me think ... which names would I have to choose between? ...



Oh, I know: Adelaide and June (I know, two markedly different names, but I like them both). June, of course, means "the sixth month of the year." Adelaide, on the other hand, means "noble kind; of the noble sort." I think I might just choose June in this case. I love the sixth month, but that is not why I like the name.Question for people who don't care about name meanings?
I would turn to the meaning.

I like Cameron better but i don't like the meaning.



Declan isn't a very common name and it has a nice meaning so i would go with that name.



I like Aiden; it means little fire.

I like Brody more but it means a Scottish castle.



Good luck(:Question for people who don't care about name meanings?
Yes definitely. But modern "meanings" concern me more, for example I really like the names Xanthe and Arcadia but I will never use them because one is the name of a psoriasis drug and the other is the name of a female viagra type drug. I think associations such as these are more of an issue than the original meanings.
I would definitely use Declan.



Yes, this actually was a big factor for me. I was trying to choose between Connor and Finley. Connor means Hound, and Finley means "Light-Haired courageous one"



We choose Finley because all of my kids have very blonde hair.
