Christian (boy)

• disregarding any religious affiliation, it enstills a sense of strength, and morality.
• i'm a sucker for names ending in -ian, and Christian fits the bill; its masculine, but still sounds almost delicate David- David is a family name, and i've always loved it.
• After the character in the movie Moulin Rouge. Not only a nice religious name, but it has a romantic, storybook quality to it as well. In the movie, Christian has the gift of poetry, song and writing. Now I imagine someone with these qualities when I hear this name.
• great sounds, great meaning; suggests an edgy but brilliant personality.
• If one likes the nickname Chris, Christian is a more beautiful and unique name to give a child than Christopher.
• religious aspect yet compassionate sound to me.
• I really want to name my son this because it's like a statement of my faith and my love of God that I'd hope my son would have as well.
• Christian Blake: I like Christian better than Christopher, and Blake just sounds nice with it
• Christian Bradley: I love the name Christian as it sounds like the name of someone who is an individual who is independent and has their own mind. I love the middle name Bradley cos it compliments it well and it sounds cute for a child and mature for an adult.
• Christian LeMatthew: This name is from a youth pastor that played a big part in my life. His last name is Christian. I took Lee and Matthew and put them together bc I didn't want a completely plain name. I hate plain names.
• Christian Michael: I love the name Christian, but I don't know if the connotation is too much to bear, especially if the child grows up to be Buddhist or something. So I'm a little wishy washy on that.
• Christian Nathaniel: Christian is a great name with great meaning. Nathaniel is a biblical name that flows well with it.

You guessed it! Christian means "follower of Christ." In the middle ages up through Puritan times, Christian was most often used for girls.
