Re: Boy names (clicky poll)

  • The order in which you have listed them is my order or preference. Though Wesley and Calvin are basically even: both really nice names. Not a fan of Caine, what with the whole Biblical "Cain" thing (I'm not even religious, but it strikes me as a "don't) and Kyler... yeah. No. Kyle or Tyler are fine. Kyler is not.

  • What's a Kyler?  That doesn't even sound like a name.

    I think Wesley is the best of that bunch.

  • The first two I like okay, the second two I'm not a fan of. What about Connor or Quinn, based off of your style?

  • I voted for Wesley.  Caine is NMS and has the same biblical connection for me that PP mentioned, and Kyler is really kinda awful.  I do really like Wesley and Calvin, though!  GL!

    I agree with everything LaComtesse wrote.  

    Cain is not a good historical figure (real or not) to name your child after--whenever I mention this name as something people are naming their kids these days (wow, that makes me sound old), people inevitably are shocked and appalled. 

    I won't even start on Kyler...

  • You said you didn't want anything trendy, yet Kyler is on your list.  I don't really understand that.  But anyway, I voted Calvin.

  • Caine (or Cain) is the guy who killed his brother in the bible.  Not something I would name my kid.  Calvin is nice and Wesley is okay.  Kyler is awful.

    Kyler was one of DH's only picks. Not my fav. I wanted to include it on the poll to show him what everyone thought of it. ;) My top choice as of right now is Wesley but I am still not set on it. Thanks for everyone's opinions, they are greatly appreciated

  • NMS at all!

  • Calvin was our front runner until it was used by a (disliked) colleague of my H, so that ruined it for him, unfortunately. It's a great name, though, if you don?t have the negative association!

    Wesley is my favorite, although not sure whether it will flow with your Y last name.

    To your husband: Kyler is a bad idea.

  • I picked Wesley.

    Kyler made me laugh out loud.

  • My poor little nephew's name is Kyler. Kyler Lee, which I think makes it even worse. DH and I have never liked the name, and we'll be giving our child a non-made-up name, thank you very much..... :)
