[Opinions] Dylan or Liam?
Which do you prefer? Why? Thank you!!!

Dylan
Why? For many reasons, but I'll give you the short version:
I know one Dylan (outside of the TV screen), and he is, well, different. But a great guy nonetheless.
The meaning - I love the water, and "great sea" is nice in my water-loving opinion.
And certainly not least, I LOATHE Liam. I disliked it when I first heard it (as a nn for William) but understood that Will was too popular for the parents to like. But on its own, I detest it even more. There is no appeal to me. Even if I could talk you into using full name William (which I adore) with Liam as a nn, I would prefer simply Dylan.

I prefer Dylan. This is the name of my nephew. And its a name that I always liked. However I do like Liam as well. But if I chose between the two I would choose Dylan :)
I MUCH prefer Dylan. If I was a boy I was going to be named Dylan. I alson have a cousin named Dillon. There's something about the sound of Liam and the impression I get from the name that doesn't sit right with me. I picture Dylan as a much more down-to-earth, personable kind of guy. Liam just seems more, I don't know, proper?

Liam is nice; I just really prefer Dylan, which I love.

Liam, as a nn for William.
That way, he'll have more options for nn's when he gets older, you know? Also, I just prefer Liam in general.

Dylan, I don't really know why though, they're both good names :)
tough one. i LOVE both of these names but if i had to pick one i'd go with Liam.
Dylan.
While both are ridiculously tryndee-feeling right now, Liam's rejecting-our-roots nouveau-yuppie sheen makes me honestly angry. Plus, Bob Dylan and Dylan Thomas are brilliant namesakes.

Dylan its cuter in my opinion

Liam is NMS.

Liam because I prefer the sound and look of it. It also makes me think of my father's name, William, so I'm biased, lol.
I like both Dylan and Liam, but if I had to choose one over the other, I'd go with Dylan. Liam is nice, but I slightly more prefer it as a NN for William.
Liam!!!
Dylan is too 90's for me. I immediately think of the character Dylan from Beverly Hills 90210.

Most definately Liam! It's rather cute, but Dylan is terribly ugly.
I'm very fond of both, but Dylan is the one I want to use myself, Liam I just like a lot.
