What do you think of this name?

Colton

It looks weird when I spell it. My husband suggested it a couple weeks ago and at first I said no. But it's kind of growing on me now. I don't know though...it's a little weird for me when our other top name is very traditional, Matthew.

Nickname would be Colt, which I don't know if I like, or Cole.

What do you guys think?

     And weddingcake, I LOVE Corbin...but a good friend from college is named Corbin, and its just too unique of a name for me to name my boy that unfortunately...

  • I like the name a lot.  I know a Colton and he goes by his whole name.  I like that it's different, but not too out there.  
  • I really like it.

  • H has a cousin named Colton and hes a little bastard, so it ruins the name for me.  Which is too bad because I like the name!!  I *think* he spells his Colten though... I'll have to check at Christmas.

    oops, and edited to add: He just goes by Colten, it's short enough on its own.

  • I love it...we have good family friends that have a son named Colton (it was the mom's maiden name) and they call him Cole for short.  Super cute, IMO.

  • I love Corbin too!

    I have a problem with being too concerned with what other people think so I was just wondering if others would think it's too out there. I think it threw me off at first because my husband is a big Colts fan and I didn't want people to think we are naming him after the team :)

    I think we have our name!

  • One of my good friends has a DS named Colton.  I hadn't heard it before she had him (just turned 2), but I like it and I'm seeing it more and more.

    I LOVE Lincoln and Corbin!  DH has vetoed both though :(.  He likes the nickname Linc, just not the full name.

  • We have friends with a son named Colton.  I think it's cute!  They've asked that nobody call him Colt, though.  We live in Indianapolis though, so I think that's why they feel calling someone Colt might be a little strange!

  • I LOVE it!! We would use it ourselves but we think it's too similar to Holden.

  • it seems like a name that a nascar driver or football player would have.
  • I like Colton!  I think it was also one of Jeana's (from Real Housewives of Orange County) son's name.

  • I don't think Colton is bad, but I like Matthew better.
