    Only Kardashian fans will think of it instantly and by the time LO is older they won't be famous anymore. It's an alright name.

    I would use the spelling Kendall.  The Kardashians 15 minutes of fame will be over soon so I wouldn't let that deter you from choosing the name.

    Nah. I don't think Kardashian at all. That name has been around way longer than those girls have been alive.

    Nope. C names spelled incorrectly with Ks make me think Kardashian. It's nms but I certainly don't side eye.

    I like the spelling Kendall better. But no, I do not think Kardashian. I think it is a pretty name.

    I didn't even know it was a Kardashian name.  One of my bffs just named her daughter this- I think it's really cute.

    For me it is Sarah Michelle Gellar as the character Kendall, daughter of Erica Kane on AMC.

    Go with Kendall. And I automatically think of Kardashian too but I would still name my baby that. Also the "Kardashian" craze will end in a few years

    It's a normal enough name that people wouldn't think it was Kardashian inspired. I prefer Kendall over Kendell.

    No, in fact L has a Kendall in her class and the thought never crossed my mind and I watch the show.

    I don't think Kardashian, I think Kendall Hart, the character Sarah Michelle Gellar originated on All My Children back in the 90's.

    I've liked that name since the first time I heard it.

    I don't watch that so I don't think of them. I do love the name.

    I don't watch the show so I didn't even know there was a Kendall Kardashian. I only think it's too Kardashian if you misspell a name that should be spelled with a C with a K, like Kourtney and Khloe.
