Help[Opinions] Re: My Favorite Suggestions

I'm glad you found some mns you like. Thanks for letting us know.
Zane is a nice name. It occurs to me that Eli Shane might also make a nice mn. Both are variants of the same name (John).
I love both Eli and Evan. But they don't fow as nicely together as some of your other choices. Is Madden / Quinn a family surname? If so, then it works nicely. If not, I'd look to your other choices. I think they will wear better over time.
At the risk of sounding rude, may I ask please don't spell Declan as Decklan? It makes me think, "deck chair." That "K" is so awkward in there. I know it's not familiar to most people outside of Ireland. But it's my cousin's name. It would be as strange to me as spelling Duncan as "Dunckan," or Marcus as "Marckus."
Declan and it's pronunciation are becoming more known. If you are worried about pronunciation, I still wouldn't do it. It's in the mn position where it won't be spoken out loud that often. To me it's just not worth giving up a traditional spelling for phonetic ease.
Good luck and please keep us updated. I'd love to know what you ultimately choose. Thanks!
