I had posted a poll with Anden and Garran. I like the spelling of Garran with 'an' on the end, then it has the same ending as my other boys names, Ethan and Logan. I knew the spelling Garren was another option, I almost prefer this spelling because I would spell Darren like that. I'm not really concerned with the meanings of names but I looked up Garran and it means 'shrubery' and Garren means 'guardian'. Obviously Garren is a nicer way to go. What do you think of the name Garren? Dh and I think Garren sounds more masculine than Anden.

I like Garren better than Garran. I do like the name. I'm not sure if I like it better than Anden but I agree it does sound more masculine than Anden.
Would you still consider your R middle names that you were thinking about with Anden. If you are I still like Ryker. Garren Ryker...I like it.

My options are still the same for mn's. I like Garren Reid and Garren Ryder. Garren Ryker, Garren Reese, and Garren Reeve are still options as well.

I like the G name...but I have a friend that gave it a French twist and called her boy Guerin (pronounced gair-in). I think the spelling makes the name...

I like the name (and of the two I also prefer the Garren spelling), but I don't think it sounds as good with the R mn as Anden (and I know the R mn is a must LOL). A bit too stuttery/repetitive no matter what mn I stick in there, KWIM? Just a thought! ;)

Oh sure, throw something else in there for me to think about. You don't think I have enough problems deciding? ;) LOL! I happen to not mind the R mn with Garren. :P

LOL Terra. ;) Didn't mean to give you more to worry about. If the double R sounds don't bother you, that's great. I actually don't think it sounds terrible or anything, I just prefer Anden with the R mn as far as flow goes (in my own mind). Other than that, I'd have to say I think I like the names pretty equally. ;)

Dh has decided that he doesn't like R middle names with Garren. Apparently you aren't the only one, lol. I'm onto T mn's now for Garren but he doesn't like any that I've mentioned.
