I like the name Ryder for any future male children. The thing is I already have a son named Ryan. Too close? What do you think?

Yeah. Both with the possible nickname of 'Ry' is kinda weird.

Yeah, I think it's too close. But you could always use Ryder as a middle name! =) I like Ryder.

Too close and also reminds me of the moving van company.

My school's name is Rider and everyone twists it to sound like "Ride-her." Please do not subject your future son to this.

But not for them to be called girls...

Well, a lot more than being called a "lady's man"...

I personally would rather guys be girly than sluts... So I agree, but in our culture I think it's still worse to be called a girl.

Way too close. You could use Ryder as the middle name.

my son is Ryan, too... i've decided against any & all names with the Ry/Ri sound in the beginning of them because i think it would just be too close.

I think it's a little too close, maybe as a middle name?

But then, if you like it, go for it!

I would agree, it's a little too close. As a middle name it would be great.
