I prefer Sébastien, but I like Bastien as a nickname.

My opinions...I kind of like Bastien, but it really bears far too much a resemblance to "b****rd." If it is going to be used, I prefer it as a nickname.As for the other names...Anders-- Has grown on me considerably.
Noa-- With that spelling, it's a girls' name to me. I prefer Noah for boys (though the name as a whole is a bit too common for me).
Malo-- Means "bad" or "sick" in Spanish (depending on its context).
Felix-- I like. I named a character this once, and it's the surname of my elementary school crush. :o)
Amaury-- The "maury" part sticks out to me a bit, and I don't know if I'd want my child to be associated with a talk show host. It doesn't have an unpleasant sound, though.
Nino-- Hmm, it's okay, I guess. Nothing spectacular.
Corin-- Could grow on me.Personally, I like Anders and Bastien best (despite my objecting to it earlier in the post-- I do think it goes well with Anouk Hazel). If I had to choose, I'd pick Anders, for all the reasons stated above, and the fact that I like the alliteration of Anders Atticus. (I really like Atticus, by the way, though that's probably because I'm currently reading "To Kill a Mockingbird" for English. :P)

I don't care for Bastien, but I do like Anders (a lot), Felix, Amaury, and Corin (a lot). Atticus is nice. Be aware, Malo is the Spanish word for "bad".-Seda*

I love Felix! Bastien is nice also, but Felix has more character imo.

Personally, I prefer Sebastian with Bastian as a nn. But Bastien by itself is charming too."If there are no dogs in Heaven,

This name has been growing on me recently. I never used to like it, but I really have the past couple months. I also like Felix a lot.

I don't like it because I always initially see Bastard when I see Bastien.
