I like it!I find it interesting and quite cool to be honest. It also makes me think of my favorite TV show, Criminal Minds, where one of the earlier characters were named Gideon.

I love it but my husbands name is Ian and something about the sound of "I'm Ian and this is Gideon" bugs me. I think because I am so used to putting emphasis on the sound "Ian" it ends up being emphasized when I say Gideon, even when i try not to...weird I know. I have the same hang up with Lillian (though its way to popular for me to want to use anyway).
My favorite combos are:Gideon Silas
Gideon Titus
Gideon Cyril
Gideon Wilder
Gideon River

I like the name a little, but I can imagine getting very annoyed with it when hearing it repeated a lot. I wouldn't use it.

also...I prefer Gilead "Gil" over Gideon. I always group those two names together.

I love it and it has been one of my faves for years. Glad you're beginning to like it. :)And, sorry, no middle name ideas.

I love Gideon. I'm glad to see its popularity steadily increasing since 2000. I'd like to see it replace such Biblical names as Elijah and Noah, as I think its sound is much better than either of those.
