Help[Opinions] Re: Sebastian
in reply to a message by erb816
I used to hate it because it made me think of the crab when I was a little girl but as I got older I started to picture a prince or a noble. Then there was the character Sebastian in the second Dragon Age game so now I really picture a person of noble birth only now I view him as a goody two shoes guy who decides to be celibate for religious reasons. lol!
I like the name Sebastian but it's long and I don't love any of the nn's. That's probably the main reason it has never become a favorite of mine.
I feel like Sebastian would have a brother named Leopold and/ or a brother named Ferdinand. Although I could also see a less princely Sebastian having a brother named Ezekiel or Emmanuel.
---------
Favorite Names:
Vivian, Aurora, Hazel, Fiona, Sabrina, Citrina, Josephine, Maeve, April, Dorothea, Althea, Artemis, Delphina, Frida, Luna, Iris, Marguerite, Cascadia
Ciaran, Rowan, Brendan, Malcolm, Cedar, Robin, Julian, Tristan, Arthur, Magnus, Felix, Cedric, Adrian, Xavier, Connor, Silas, Gavin

I also see Dominic as a brother for a Sebastian. Sebastian, Ferdinand, Leopold, and Alphonse are princely brothers. Sebastian, Dominic, and Ezekiel are brothers you might actually run into at the park or the grocery store rather than at a grand ball.
Alexander feels too common, if it was less common I think Sebastian and Alexander would go very well as brothers. Sebastian is now heading towards becoming a popular name but it needs to get more popular and stay there a while to reach the commonness of Alexander. I feel that Alexander's brother would be more likely Benjamin or Nicholas or Michael or William, etc...
Tarquin on the other hand is too unusual and a different feel to it than Sebastian at least imo. I expect a Tarquin to have a brother named Victor or Hector or Mordecai or Moriarty or Hannibal or Vladimir.
