What are your thoughts on the name Keegan for a boy? It was on my list a few years ago when I was pregnant with my daughter. Since then a friend has used it but I still would myself. I really like it, sounds so handsome to me.WDYT?And which spelling do you prefer? Keegan or Keagan? Thanks!

I have a cousin named Keegan. I've never really liked the name. It has to do with the sound I guess.

I know a Keegan who is a boy. I like I might like Keagan better though.

Keegan for a boy is great IMO. never liked it for a girl but for a boy it is very dashing!

Don't like itI don't really like the sound of Keegan for a boy. Think of the nickname. Keeg. Hey, Keeg! What's up, Keeg? I don't think it sounds nice. I like the name Keaton much better for a boy. A nickname could be Keith. But if you really like Keegan, I prefer it spelled Keagan. The two e's don't look good. I hate Keagan, but I really like Teagan, which means "poet." I don't know why, but Keagan has a sort of feminine sound to it.

It seems a bit passe to me, and was somewhat cool in the 90s maybe, but seems very stale now. Very trendy.

It makes me think of bad hair, because my main association with it is 70s footballer Kevin Keegan, who was famous here for starting a fashion of frizzy permed hair on boys. I don't like it as a first name at all - sorry! How about Kenan? Similar sound, better history.

LOLThough American accosiations with Kenan are with Kel. Kenan & Kel it was on in the UK briefly!

It sounds really unattractive to me, with the oh-so-trendy K initial, -an ending, and Celtic feel.

It's not really my style, so I don't really like it...I like the spelling Keegan better.
