Allen

Double L makes it a lot better.

My son is named Allen Joseph D____ and we call him AJ and he loves his name. He is named after my great grandfather and his father's middle name was Allen also.

I like it honestly, it’s simple. I think it’s great for both first and middle names.

Better than Alan.

I love the name Allen, it's a less common, more interesting form of Alan, which is a pretty good name too. Love the nickname Al.

Allen is so classic. Every time I hear Allen I think of a loving father or a dream chef, but also a handsome gentlemen :)

Alan is a wonderful name for a man, or a boy.
Allan is a lovely middle name.
Allen is a surname.

I thought I would leave a personal impression. Okay. I think that the name Allen is more of a middle name. Which is good because it goes with EVERY first name imaginable. Try it. Pick a first name and then add Allen. It works I PROMISE. I am absolutely going to name one of my sons Allen.
