    I've never heard this name before and I am a teacher. It is not my style.

    The only time I've seen this name is on the actor from Twilight, but it's spelled Kellan. I kinda like it.

    I've heard it. I kinda like it but it I could see people thinking it was feminine-ish.

    Sounds all boy to me & I like it. Not super popular around here, although I think I've heard it once or twice.

    I know one who is around 20 by now. I don't think it is remotely feminine.

    I am not loving this name.  It seems like a fad name to me .... and like it'll date very quickly.  Sorry, not a fan at all.

    I know two Kellans. One is in his 20's and one is two. I kind of like it but it always makes me think of Helen Keller.

    There was a girl in my sorority named Kellen and that is the only person I have ever met with that name so to me it sounds feminine.

    I know two Kellens (boys) about 4 years old.  If my name wasn't so similar I would have considered it for a boy.

    Lurker herewe really like that name for a boy and as of now, it is one of two boys names we agree on!

    I like it spelled Kellan though.

    I have never heard of it but I like it. It sounds more masculine in my opinion.

    I like it. It's similar to the name DH and I have chosen if we are ever blessed with a boy.

    It's my cousin's name (boy). It isn't even remotely feminine to me. I think it's an okay name. Kellan gets a squiggly underline when I typed it, but Kellen doesn't. Stick with Kellen.

    DH has a friend named Kellen, so it's all boy to me.

    I've only heard it used on males, it's definitely a boy's name.
