What are your honest thoughts in this name ? DH is stuck on this name for the next DS . (Saw it on Survivor lol)

It is ok, reminds me of cheese. My dh and I considered Cole for a while for our lo.  I do not like it spelled with a K at all.

I dislike it. Just makes me think of the cheese.

Sadly, I know a Kolbie (girl) who is <5 years old. 

Lol I didn't even think of cheese . He is insisting on Kolby ... I liked it 5 years ago before I started on The Bump haha

It's OK.

I am a HUGE Survivor fan, so he gives the name a good association.

Just seems like a dogs name to me but it's not terrible

I like it. The cheese association doesn't bother me. IRL I have only known girls named Colby (both in their late 30's). I much prefer it spelled with a C.

I work with a Colby, positive association.

I only think of cheese. I went to hs with a guy named Colby. He was often called "Colby Jack" or "Cheese"

ETA- also Colbie Callait

I also think of cheese.  It's not a horrible name though.  Kolby however, is a horrible name.

I like Colby.  Went to high school with a Colby.  Not a fan of Kolby.

I don't hate it, but it makes me think of cheese.

Also cheese. It's bad. Kolby is ten times worse than Colby but both are bad.

Colby is good--it has some spunk/personality and doesn't seem made-up. Kolby seems made-up.

I like it.  But only with a "C".

Colby is cheese. That's all I have ever thought of.

I like Colby. Please do not use the K.

Hate it.  It's a cheese.

Yep, makes me think of the cheese as well. Never known anyone with this name. If you must, please spell it with a 'C', the 'K' spelling is atrocious.

It's ok with a C, but awful with a K.

Colby is a boy, or a cheese...and Kolby is a no.

Cheese! Also, I had a variation (or what I can only assume is a variation) - Kelby (male) in class last year.

Ineedmorecoffee

I don't like it but it's a fine name. It sounds clunky to me.

BookitBoo

I like Colby, I've only ever known a boy named Colby and he was sweet.

Not a fan of the K

macska3

I know a Colby, it suits him well. It's a solid name.

Kolby is reeealllly bad.

I used to watch All My Children and fell in love with the name Colby because of it. I'm not sure if I would ever use it personally, but I definitely still like it.

I know a couple of little boys with the name Kolbe, named after St. Maximilian Kolbe. I like it! You don't get the cheese association with that spelling either.

AlphabetFish

It's cheese to me, or a dog name. I prefer Cody.

moonfaerie

The actress from HIMYM is actually Cobie, short fot Jacoba, not Colbie. I don't think cheese, because I don't like cheese, but Colby is not good IMO. It sounds very cowboy to me. If it's the name, though, definitely spell it with a C.

Yup cheese
