I met the most insufferable boy named Fabian once. Haven't liked the name since.

I like it!

I don't like the sound of it - not because it's too soft, it just sounds weird.

Not a fan. I typically like soft boys names, but this is too soft for me. I also dislike Fabbe, which us a common nickname here for Fabian.
We also have a saying; "Fy, Fabian" which I guess could translate to "Ew, Eugene". So that's my first association.

I recently discovered that Fabian was the name of one of my great...great..great-great grandfathers!

It's a pretty neat name. Kind of flashy. A very exciting find in my family tree, that's for sure. I love that it means "bean", that's truly adorable.

I've never met one; don't find it very appealing, though there's a pleasant minor character with the name in Twelfth Night.

I went to high school with one. He was one of the popular guys. The name is not my style though.

Don't like it at all

One of my absolute favorite names. So handsome and fun. :)

Not a fan.
