[Opinions] Cristian?
My friend just had her third baby yesterday, and after a whole day of deliberation, they finally chose the name Cristian Nicholas.
Hmmm. I can't make my mind up about it.
It seems a little odd without the 'h' in Christian, but they have left an equally useless 'h' in Nicholas.
Would Christian Nicholas, have looked better or Cristian Nicolas? What do you think of Cristian Nicholas?I do like the name Cristian / Christian though, it is a rather handsome name.Does it suit his siblings Layla Nikita and Cruz Tyson?

I love the spelling Cristian, and the pronunciation (more like kree-STyAHN). It does seem strange to leave the H out of Christian and leave it in Nicholas. I would only expect to see Cristian used by Spanish-speaking parents. I do prefer the flow of Nicholas Cristian, but Cristian Nicolas has a lovely flow (the Spanish pronunciation emphasizes the last syllable of each name).I think Layla Nikita, Cruz Tyson, and Cristian Nicholas go very well together, as far as style goes, but I don't like Cruz and Cristian as brothers, because they both have meanings related to the cross.

I have a son named Cristian and a son named Nicolas, so I love the name ;). I'm not sure I like them together as a combo though. :)
