Dominic or Dorian?
Which name do you prefer? I have been loving Dorian again. The Dorian Gray association does not bother me. Im just asking based on the name alone. To be technical I love the Ancient Greek association to the name and ofcourse the sound. I also am a Dominic name lover to. So I was just curious which one you liked better.Thank you

I prefer Dorian. I've never been a huge fan of Dominic, though there's nothing wrong with it. I just prefer the sound of Dorian. The fact that it's also a musical mode makes it even better. :)

Neither, but if I had to pick, I'd say Dominic.

I really adore both but since Dominic has been a favorite of mine for quite awhile, I'd have to go with that one.

DominicI think Dominic's more handsome and although I used to like Dorian, I just don't like it anymore. I don't even know why :/ However, I'm liking Darian which is quite similar to Dorian.

Dorian, I think it sounds nicer and I don't think of Dorian Gray. However, there is nothing wrong with Dominic.

I like both but I love Dorian more. Dominic seems to be rising in popularity quite a bit lately. I love the sound of Dorian and the Dorian Gray association doesn't bother me much, either.

I like Dorian much more in terms of sound, but the association with the character does bother me slightly.

Dominic sounds much better. Dorian, in spite of the positive ancient Greek associations, does sound a bit too feminine and personally Dorian Gray is the first thing I think about when I see it.

I'm not too fond of either, but if I had to choose, I would pick Dominic. Unfortunately and quite embarrassingly, I associate Dorian with the female character from the American soap opera 'One Life to Live'. Thus, Dorian sounds firmly female in my mind. Dominic, on the contrary, sounds very masculine and strong.

I prefer Dominic, but I like Dorian, as well. To me, Dorian is all male, but then I've never seen that soap opera.(By the way, I love your signature! It had me chuckling for a good while.)ETA: I put this in the wrong place! The Dominic/Dorian response is for Egyptian Princess, and the signature note is for MariaNikolaievnaRomanova. So confused!
