User Comments about the name Dylan
Comment left Sep 26, 2008: "My son's name is Dylan Christopher (middle name after his dad). We did NOT name him after Bob Dylan as many people assume. This was one of 2 names that I came up with when pregnant, and my husband liked Dylan and that was that. Good name...too many variations, and it has become fairly popular." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Sep 08, 2008: "i agree that lots of people are named dillan dillon, dhillon ,dylon , dylan and more but even though it gets annoying i think the name is awesome." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Sep 08, 2008: "The fact that you would find it insulting by the way a parent or parents decides on how to spell the name dillan ,dillon ,dhillon or any other way to spell it is rediculus. my name is spelt dillan and no matter how its spelt it sounds the same. if this matter really insults you, it must not rain in your world./ and i am 13" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jan 27, 2008: "Dylan is an awesome name. and coinsedently i am called it. i am insulted when people think it is spelt dillan or dillon because it clearly shouldnt. Dylan is the only true way to spell it and i was told by someone that it meant Great sea or god of the sea. i like Dylan as a name and am happy that i was called it at birth. i am 15 now but however have only come across 3 other people in my life that shares my name, they all spell it Dylan :D:D" (Report as inappropriate)
