I left but now am back because i'm curious plus i figured out pretty quick that there aren't too many places to ask about baby names or at least quasi-active ones.

Van Ezra Braswell




Written out it almost looks girly, i just noticed that. Maybe it's all the A's?
The middle name is my fiances choice i'm too tired to argue about it anymore and will just let him have it.
Although it fits better than the other names we had. Finn,Wyatt,River.

Anyways, not terribly trendy in my eyes but original i think. Which is what we wanted.
It sounds much cooler than it looks.
What say you?

Van Ezra reminds me of Vanessa.

Van bugs me a lot; is it a nickname? Short for Vanna? Vanessa? Minivan? I am most definitely not a fan.

Well, um, I was pretty confident you wouldn't name your son a nickname for Vanna or minivan, etc. The point is that the name itself, without the context you've presented, is unclear and awkward. Why not just use Donovan, and call him Van? You said in above comment that it's name-stealing, but is it somebody close to you or just famous Donovans? Because if it's nobody very close to you, that's still better than just plain Van, I think.
