Cruz?

How do you guys feel about the name Cruz? 

Our last name is Caldwell so we want to stick to the "C" names.

NMS. I think of the last name when I see it.

I don't like it. I think many nice suggestions have been made.

Collin. Christopher. Colton..

I think the name is adorable, but not with your last name, I don't like the alliteration at all.

I like Cruz, but I don't know why you like matching fn and ln like that? It sounds a little theatrical. Perhaps spend time looking at names that start with other letters, perhaps that have family significance, and see if you have a different frontrunner? But if Cruz is truly your favorite in the end,  don't think it's terrible!

I don't mind Cruz but I'm not a fan of the alliteration

Cross. That's what it means; specifically, the cross from the Christian crucifixion story. I don't like it. Sorry. 

Conrad, Corbin, Calvin, Caius, Colm, Callum. 

I was going to say that it sounds like a last name, and I don't like it. Knowing it's meaning, however, makes me like it! I wouldn't use it if you aren't fairly religious, though.

I don't care for it. I really like PP's suggestion of Christopher Caldwell.

Love the name Cruz

Not a fan of Cruz at all. My favorite C names are Carter (obvi), Colin, Caleb and Cole.

lilboudjie

love the name Carter too! My husbands friend named their son Carter so we don't want to use it as well. I think we are going to give some other names a thought. Many ladies mentioned the alliteration being silly. We will see if there are some other unique names (that fit our personalities) that don't stretch as far as Cruz. Thanks again guys!

I don't mind alliteration but I do not care for Cruz.

It is a deeply religious name. I support Cruz when it is being used by someone who understands that it is in honor of the Holy Cross on which The Savior died. 

If you just think it sounds cool then I don't think it is a good idea.
