Comment left Oct 09, 2009: "We named our younger son Ryan. He is exactly what I think of when I think of any boy named Ryan -- handsome, funny, all around good looks. He is a sweetheart and his name fits him perfectly. He was meant to be called Ryan." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 05, 2009: "It is my favorite boy name of all time! So of course my first son is Ryan. He was born in 1983, but I had loved the name since about 1970, when I taught a Ryan in my second grade class. I kept it in mind, knowing that if I could convince my husband (I wasn't even married then and hadn't even met my future husband!) I would have a son named Ryan. My only regret is that it became SO popular right around the time we used it. But I'll always love the name, and my son likes it too." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 30, 2009: "My name is Ryan and in college I was going to live with my 2 other friends named Ryan and Ryan. We decided against it because it would be hard when people called us on the phone. I was born in 1971 and I know a lot of people with that name born in that year." (Report as inappropriate)
