The poll closed too soon for me to vote, but I just had to say I adore Damien And Adrian is a close second! Kyros is cool and would make a great middle name for Damien. I love the meaning of Cyrus/Kyros!

Derek gets my vote.

I think Damien would be a problem if you live in the U.S.--all those Damien Omen movies. A lot of people remember them, and what if they do a remake? I knew a boy growing up with the name and he got teased a lot.

Tyler is really, really trendy. I think it would date him and it's just not a solid enough boys' name for me.

Adrian sounds too much like Adrianne. NMS for a boy.

Kyros strikes me as quite ethnic. Unless you have a Greek last name or Greek heritage, I think this would be a tough one to carry around.

I don't know why no one voted in your poll, I don't remember seeing it before, although I wasn't on IVillage over the weekend at all.

I LOVE, LOVE the name Derek.

Tyler is just so overused and still going strong apparently

Damian is OK, Adrian I don't care for just because it's too close to the girl name Adrienne, same pronunciation.

Kyros sounds very Greek. I guess it would be fine if you are Greek and have a Greek-sounding last name, but I think it would be very strange otherwise

I really like Adrian and Tyler. I associate Damien with the Omen movies, although the name itself is great. I would probably choose Adrian as a first choice-very nice :)
