Hello! I’ve been stuck when it come to boy names for awhile and really want to expand my list. I’m drawn to softer, a tad more feminine boy names such as [name_m]Sebastien[/name_m] nn [name_u]Sacha[/name_u] & [name_u]Eden[/name_u] which are the only two names I actually love at the moment. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated!

Has anyone noticed how in English royalty there weren't a lot of names? For example, in 1450-1500, in The Cousins War era, we had tons of Edwards and Elizabeths. Lots of variations had to evolve, logical and non-logical, like"Teddy" from Edward (Edward Plantagenet). I wonder if a lack of actual names had a hand in forcing nickname evolution.

+1, I like that this is the first answer to address the multiple Unicode code points involved. However, I think you might mention that regardless of the characters' names or official prescriptions for use, the less-than and greater-than signs are commonly used as a type of brackets, probably because they can easily be typed and their display is more widely supported than that of the other symbols.
