HelpSloan/e
Was watching a movie and there was a male character named Sloan, it made me think a bit further about it.
I really like Sloan/e for a boy. I don't think i'd use it, but i'm curious whether it fits well with our other names.
Theodora/Theodore , Daphne and Alfred.
Do you prefer Sloan or Sloane?
What would you use as a middle name to break up our second middle name Stewart?
Sloan _____ Stewart

I used to hate Sloane with a passion (as a female name), ever since I first heard it in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." It just seemed so... pretentious, even more than one of those really long Latin or Ancient Greek names. I can't really pinpoint when I started to think of Sloane as a really cool name, but eventually I did. It makes me think of high-powered lawyers.
That all said, I'm having trouble seeing Sloan as a masculine name because I've imagined it so long as female (in large part due to the John Hughes movie). It's strange, because similar-sounding names like Morgan and Rowan are strictly masculine to me.
I suppose Alexander, Andrew, Benedict, Cameron, Evan / Evander, Farrell (too close to Ferris?), Finlay / Finley, Gregory, Henry, Isaac / Isaiah, Oliver, Vincent, William, or Xavier could be middle names.

I'm sorry, I really dislike the sound and look of it.
I think Sloan looks more masculine, but either one works.
I don't think it goes with the others. I think it goes with names like Lorne, Dougal, Elroy and Galen. With Logan or Rory, at best.

I personally never liked the name and always found it more suited to a girl. (1987? Film) "Ferris Beuller's Day Off" was the first time I ever came across the name.
Sloan and Sloane doesn't matter to me. I dislike the name regardless/of which way one spells it. And it definitely doesn't seem like a guys name.
Theodore, Daphne & Alfred go well together.
