Decklyn vs. Declan

Which spelling do you like best? I prefer Decklyn but my husband likes Declan. Our son is due in a few weeks and we can’t decide, also we need middle name ideas!! We love this name but cannot find a middle name we like with it! Thanks y’all -Kristan, Austyn, Waelyn Dean (5), Gannan Axel (3) and Decklyn/Declan

Declan is great your spelling looks ridiculous and made up sorry - also really girly looking.

Decklyn will always be spelt Declan and Decklyn looks like a trendy spelling for a girl. It looks soooo bad and will be problematic for his whole life.

I love Decklyn! I have always loved this name, but hate the spelling. I have been considering Decklin, but Decklyn is a very nice way to spell it. Tonight, YOU helped ME!
So... On to you. I LOVE Decklyn and think that you should use it!
Suggestions:
Decklyn Cole
Decklyn Daniel
Decklyn John
Decklyn Miles

I don’t know how much I helped you, but I hope that I helped at least a little bit. Good luck and best wishes!!!

Declan is very handsome but I really dislike Decklyn. I agree that it looks tacky and like someone’s tried to make a boy name look feminine.

If I saw Decklyn, I would assume that it was a girl, due to the creative spelling. While I don’t like the name, I would definitely go with the traditional spelling Declan.

Samantha, how is that spelling working out for him? We're thinking about using the same spelling for our son.
