Calvin?

brookelynpaisley · March 2010

My husband and I have been talking names since before we were engaged, but now that we're getting down to thinking about TTC in the forseeable future, starting to toss them around more. We originally liked Aiden and Mason, but the popularity of both of them have made us both start looking for new options. My husband loves Calvin, but I had a bad association with a weirdo kid I went to high school with. However, it's now growing on me.

So, what do you think of Calvin? MN would probably be Zachariah or Zachary.

I don't care for it. I like Cal as a nickname, though.

It's okay. I like the nn Cal. I prefer Caleb though.

I like Caleb, too, but my cousin named her son Caleb. I also thought maybe Callan would be a good alternative.

I love it. It was our top boy name choice (I'm also a huge Cal Ripken, Jr. fan)

This may sound weird, but we had a cat named Calvin and the name really grew on me the more I said it! I would consider it for a boy but husband actually hates the NN Cal.
