I've never been a Lorcan fan.. it always felt like the name of a villain for a show or something :( I don't think it actually is used for a villain or anything, but thats just what it makes me think.

Regardless, I think Ezra Lorcan, Lorcan Grey, and Lorcan Parker sound nice :)

I had actually never heard it before that book I read. It's nice to know I'm not the only one who has hard of it, even if you don't like it lol :)

Nick doesn't like it as a first name. He said he wouldn't actually name his son Lorcan, so that means its either a GP or I can use it as middle lol

I love Lorcan Grey :wub: but I guess its time to fiddle with first names for it.

I kind of agree with Remy. It seems a bit like a villians name.
But as a middle name it's nice, Ezra Lorcan is actually very handsom. :)

Have to agree with Hadley, Lorcan seems kinda villan-y. I much prefer the somewhat similar sounding Lorne. I do think Ezra Lorcan and Lorcan Grey are both nice combos. I have heard if before on name lists.

Thanks!

I just looked up the meaning of Lorcan, and I honestly think I've just fallen head over heels. It means "little fierce one". :wub: if only you guys knew how well that would fit a baby boy for us! Plus, it caught my attention because its real Irish-y, and obviously its Irish and Gaelic.

Nick said it sounds like something you would name a bad @$$. Bahahaha. :)

Thank you ladies for taking the time to give me your opinions!

Thats a sweet meaning :) Normally I tend to love Irish names... I guess Lorcan just isnt one of them. I guess it does sound like a bad boy name... Which fits the villain thought I feel from it ;)

And no problem! I enjoy giving commnts :)
