Boy Name vs. Boy Name?

Question

Just a short this or that regarding four masculine names. Comments are appreciated and will gain you BA. 1. Declan vs. Deacon {One or the other will make it on to my favourites, I just can't decide which one}. 2. Dean vs. Sawyer {Dean has been my #1 boy name for years, but Sawyer is creeping up on it}. :)

Answer 1

1. Declan. Deacon makes me think of some of the officials in a church (you know, deacons, elders, etc)

2. Sawyer. Because it's just been one of my favorites for a good while now! Plus I didn't actually like Dean that much on Gilmore Girls, and he's who I think of whenever I hear the name!

Answer 2

Deacon, Dean

Answer 3

I don't like either of the names in #1, and I like both Dean and Sawyer. Have you considered Sawyer Dean as a full name?

Answer 4

1. Declan ♥
2. Sawyer

:)

Answer 5

I love Declan better. Both are great but Declan flows better to me i guess.
I prefer Dean. Sawyer reminds me too much of Tom Sawyer.

Answer 6

1. Declan, Deacon looks better written though. :)
2. definitely Dean

Answer 7

1- Deacon
2- Sawyer

Answer 8

1. Deacon
2. Dean

:))

Answer 9

deacon - it's a stronger sounding name. (and it has the cool nickname of Deke)
dean - it's a underused name, but a good solid one. nice that's one syllable, too. it's an unpretentious name, but a very honest one.

Answer 10

Declan & Dean
Dean is one of my fav boy names. Short and masculine(:
