I just finished reading a book and the main characters were named Dillon (m) and Laine (f).

Thoughts on those names?

I have a young (8 or so) relative named Dillon so I've been pondering whether I like it or not (or better than Dylan) for awhile now and I just can't decide. I like it, but it also makes me think of the spice (Dill).

I think I like Laine, but as a middle name if at all. I'm really not sure though.

my brother is named Dylan, so Dillon has always looked wrong to me. To each their own though. I just think it makes the name look so harsh. Also the meaning of the name is "God of the sea" and to me "Dylan" goes much more with that, when you write it in cursive it is so flowey, sort of similar to waves.

Laine is pretty but it makes me think of Layne Staley.
