Comments for FLORIAN:

A very lovely name. It expresses intelligence. Its short form in Germany is "Flo", which sounds like a cheedy boy - I like that.

Or "Flori", which I don't like at all.
Florian is my stepfather's name, but luckily he goes by Flo (only Flori sometimes).

This is singer Dido's real name: Florian Cloud de Bounevialle O'Malley Armstrong. (gulp)
I think it works quite well as a female name - floral connotations.

I love this name. I met someone from France with this name. This name always reminds me of him. It also sounds nice and sophisticated.

An unusually pretty name for a boy. I like that. :]

Masculine and beautiful at once. I like that there is a floral name for a male.
