[Opinions] Florian
Could this name ever work? What would you pair it with?
Hmm. Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

I can only think of the judge on Cupcake Wars on the the Food Network.
The name suits him. He's a professional pastry chef.

It works ... but if in the US, probably it works a lot better in urban, coastal areas. There's a certain impression from the flor- part that could lead to it being interpreted as wimpy. More so than Francis, less so than Meriwether.
I like it alright. I don't think it's wimpy. It's like Julian. Easy enough to picture on a weak person, but even easier to picture on a strong one. Florian is colder than Julian though.

This is the name I love and always forget about!
It's way too feminine sounding for a modern American boy. I'd pair it with Butch to balance it out. Florian Butch.
I adore Florian! It's been "working" for almost two millennia.
Florian is a little snooty to me, probably because the only one I'm aware of is the French judge on one of the baking shows on the food network. It's not bad though, but the Flor- obviously brings to mind floral, flowers, which isn't something a lot of people are into for boys.
I did briefly work with a girl named Florianne (apparently called "Flo" by friends, but she was just Florianne at work) and I don't get the same impression from Florianne [f] that I do from Florian [m].

It's a nice enough name, but not my style. It's a little fancy. I do like Dorian though, which another poster mentioned.
