in Baby Names

I have never met a Caleb. However I have known multiple Kaleb's.

Which spelling do you prefer?

    Caleb 100%. Adding a K is not trendy. I wish my parents used a C on my name instead of trying to be different. Kassie looks weird.

    Caleb with a C.  I've never seen a Bible that spelled it Kaleb with a K.  And I really dislike substituting Ks for Cs when unnecessary; it's very cutesy to me, especially with boy names.

    I like Caleb I think. 

    Funny story with that though, growing up I only knew one "Caleb" and his parents spelled it "Kalieb". For the first 10 or so years of my life I thought that was the correct and common spelling. LOL

    We never even questioned that DS's name woud begin with C. I just had a discussion about this on another forum and apparently Kaleb is popular in some other languages. For me, I prefer Caleb because it's more what I'm used to and we chose his name based on the biblical person.

    Caleb.

    I've only seen Kaleb once and it was a fictional character in a futuristic paranormal book series.

    Caleb. The "K" for "C" trend is overdone and will be so dated when your child is older.

    C is far and away better, IMO. 

    Caleb is on our list, and I hate seeing it with a K all of a sudden. I didn't think it would be a name you would have to spell for people, and now it is.
