What do people think of the baby name Christian?

Question

If I chose the name Christian I would call him Chris. I like the name but fear it may be too common? I'm debating between that and the name Wesley which is not terribly common.

Answer 1

I love the name Christian! Chris is way more common than Christian. I don't really like the name Wesley, sorry.

Answer 2

i really like Christian amd it sorta causes the kid to become a Christian because thats his name!! wesley is cute, though. i know a guy named Christian but he goes by C.J. cuz he's really cool and nice & his middle name starts with a J but idk what it is.....

Answer 3

If my child was named Christian, I wouldn't shorten it to Chris, because it is very common, and Christian is not so much. But I LOVE the name Wesley, shortened to Wes. Very cute. I like both.

Answer 4

Christian is a great name. I don't think it's to common of a name. I've never met one so i guess it just depends on the area you live in.  

Answer 5

I love Christian. More than likely he will end up going by Chris, but you can still call him by his full name. I prefer Christian over Wesley.

Answer 6

Wesley Christian?

Christian Wesley?

I love the name Christian and Westley.

Answer 7

I do not think Christian is too common of a name; and while wesley isn't all that common, it is kind of plain. So I'd pick Christian

Answer 8

i know someone named Christian but that's what he goes by, not Chris. Chris is much to popular. Wesley is adorable though :-)

Answer 9

Christian is a great name, a lot nicer than Wesley. Another nice way you can spell it is Kristian, Kris is a cool nickname, and less common than Chris. :-)
