翻译文: 我喜欢Lachlan的名字,但我可以看到它在美国有很多发音问题。
原文: I like the name Lachlan, but I can see it having a lot of pronunciation problems in the United States.
原文: It's pronounced how it is spelt LA-chlan with the ch making the sort of scraping noise that is at the end of the word loch rather than the ch at the start of church for example. Apologies for the dodgey description but it's the best I can do!My son is called Lachlan (although he's only two, so calls himself wacken) I live in Scotland but I am English and back home people are unfamiliar with the ch sound so it is often pronounced lacklan. Although that isn't as annoying as people saying lochlan, which is a different name altogether. I think people get mixed up with laughlan. It means "from the land of the lochs" or "warrior of the lochs".

翻译文: 这在澳大利亚非常受欢迎,但我从来没有在美国听说过。你怎么念它?
原文: This is so popular in Australia, but I've never heard it in the US. How do you pronounce it?
原文: This name had to grow on me, but I really like it now. PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO TURN THIS INTO A FEMININE NAME. So many male names have been turned into feminine names and now there's few good names left for boys.
原文: Lachlan is such a lovely name, although often mangled beyond all recognition. My boyfriend's name is Lachlan, and I have had to suffer through years of teachers and friends butchering it. I've heard "Latchlawn", "Latchlan", "Lacklan", "Locklawn"...I still love the name though. It sounds very strong and smart.
原文: Now please understand before I say anything else: Lachlan is a fine name. It's solid and enduring. It sounds handsome in a self-deprecating sort of way. It still has upwardly mobile, socially aspirant connotations, yet is so common and ordinary that is completely free of snobbery.But please try to imagine yourself in a world where the name Lachlan has been popular and well-used, not just for a few years, but for several decades. Imagine that for your entire lifetime there have been numerous Lachlans who have been your friends, relatives, workmates and members of your footy team.Now imagine that Lachlan becomes even more popular - sure, if you look at the BTN popularity for Australia it says Lachlan has been a top 5 name for over a decade now.But that is only for one state, and doesn't take into account local popularity.Lachlan was the number ONE name in my home town last year. And the year before. And the year before that. In fact it's been #1 for more than ten years now.Can you imagine a world where people are always introducing you to their brother Lachlan, uncle Lachlan, best friend Lachlan and their son Lachlan? Now can you please have some level of sympathy when I say I AM REALLY BORED WITH THE NAME LACHLAN NOW. PLEASE MAKE IT STOP.

翻译文: 也应该添加到英语名字,因为它在澳大利亚很常见。 [指出]
原文: Should be added to English names as well, since it is common in Australia. [noted -ed]
原文: Should be pronounced as 'lack-lan' but is commonly mispronounced as 'lock-lan' both in Scotland (where you would think we'd know better) and elsewhere.
原文: Lachlan Macquarie was Governor of New South Wales, Australia, from 1810 to 1821. He played a leading and historically memorable role in the colony's development.
原文: Lachlan Murdoch is the son of Australian media mogul Rupert Murdoch, and married to Australian model/actress Sarah Murdoch (nee O'Hare). Lachlan is an extremely popular name in Australia, ranking within the top 5 baby names in every year for the last decade. Outside of Australia it is not nearly as common.Personally, while I like the spelling, yet familiar sound (reminds me of Lincoln), I don't particularly like the meaning of this on a child; unless, of course, he is from Norway, or at least somewhat Scottish.

翻译文: 哇。对于男孩或男人来说,一个令人难以置信的英俊,强大的名字。这是一个伟大的名字。
原文: Wow. What an incredibly handsome, strong name for a boy or man. This is a great name.
原文: I love this name and think it would be perfect for our son. Alas, my husband hates it and thinks it sounds like a name I am making up to sound cool.

翻译文: Lachlan听起来像“lachtan”(印章)在捷克语。
原文: Lachlan sounds like "lachtan" (seal) in Czech.
原文: I have a cousin named this, and I have seen him grow from a cute toddler to a full-sized man, and the name has grown with him. It's an excellent name, and I can see it becoming more popular soon, and in Australia it's become very common already. I do prefer the spelling Lochlan though.
原文: OH, please don't try to turn this into a girls name. GEEZE. There are enough girl names to go around, without taking a sexy, handsome, masculine and proud name like this and turning it into something butchy and semi-feminine. Signed, a girl with a guy name and I HATE it! (Ashley)
原文: This is such a cool, smart, handsome name! It should definitely be used more.And might I be so bold as to suggest it as a girls name if varied as Lachlyn?

翻译文: 绝对是我听到的最酷的名字之一。我喜欢的声音和外观。极好!
原文: Definitely one of the coolest names I've ever heard. I love the sound and look. Fabulous!
原文: My neighbour's grandson is called Lachlan and he is so cute! I think this name can be really nice but I imagine it gets pronounced wrongly a lot, especially outside Scotland - either by people who can't pronounce the ch sound properly so it ends up as Locklan which is awful, or by pronouncing the a as 'ah' instead of 'aw'.
原文: In a Danish book by Lene Kaberbool, Lachlan is a family-name (the book's name is Skämmerskans Dotter, Skämmerskans = Someone who make you remember your worst mistakes, and dotter =daughter).
