    I like it but it's just too close to Savanah. Van and Van....they will think that is where they were conceived. JK....it's cute, but just too close to your daughter.

    I think Van is much more a nickname for Savanah, and that it might take away from the individual personalities of your children.

    I might suggest...

    http://www.babynamesworld.com/search.php?p=qsearch...

    Copy paste this link...or, if that doesn't work...go to www.babynamesworld.com, choose 'boys names' that contain 'van' and hit 'search'. This might give you longer names that include 'van'. That way, you can have names that are similar to each other without being identical, AND you can still use Van as a nickname, if you want,

    Good luck: :-D

    I like that name Van. But because it is too similar to Savanah (which is beautiful), I personally would not give that to him as a first name. How about for a middle? :)

    It is a cute name for a little boy, but a very hard name for a professional man to live with. Maybe something close but easier to grow into, like Evan?

    I do not like Van as a name

    Not my son, if you love it , then it's prefect

    Savannah and Van, is okay, I guess, I would not used it

    I would do something like Savannah and Austin, both southren cities, if I want a like names

    Not my child, If you love Savannah and Van, then prefect

    I have a friend and her hubby's name is Vaughn and I really like that name. It's close to Van but a little different meaning they can have their own names as well as their own different personalities. Vaughn is pronounced as von.

    Van is cute but I think it is too much with Savannah. What about Vaughn or Vince or Vin instead?

    i like it but the school kids:

    hey dodge caraVAN

    hey van do you drive a miniVAN

    i paid 36$ for my new VANs skate shoes

    im an alumni of VANderbilt

    the VANtom of the opera (close enough)

    in the VANity magazine

    that name could be traumatizing for the boy, maybe stick with something suddle like Benjamin.

    just kidding, I like VAN!
