Callum - What do you think?

[name]Callum[/name] is a new love of mine. I think its quite handsome, and the nickname [name]Cal[/name]/[name]Cally[/name] is adorable.
What are your thoughts on it, Berries?

I like [name]Callum[/name] a lot! I don’t know if I would use it, but it’s been popping up on my radar lately, too. Although I like some of your other favorites–[name]Elliot[/name], [name]Henry[/name], [name]Jude[/name], [name]Noah[/name]–more…

I really like [name]Callum[/name] too!

boyandgirl · September 23, 2011, 5:05pm

Can’t see myself using it, but I like it!

I love [name]Callum[/name], I think the nickname [name]Cal[/name] is great. Also, I like the fact that it’s unusual but still easy to pronounce and spell!

I like [name]Callum[/name], but I love [name]Colm[/name].

[name]Callum[/name] is one of our two top names…so [name]LOVE[/name] it!

I love the name [name]Callum[/name] - but NO nickname - just [name]Callum[/name]

I really like [name]Callum[/name]. If we didn’t already have that name in my family I would have it on my list.

I like [name]Callum[/name]! It has a gentle sound. [name]Cal[/name] is a cute nickname.

lovejoca2 · September 24, 2011, 9:04pm

[name]Love[/name] it…but my husband hates it.

[name]Callum[/name]…sounds like the word “calumny,” which means, “slander,” but don’t worry that SAT word will never be used in 10 years. If that concerns you, you may go for a name of similar ilk like [name]Elliot[/name]

I think it’s very handsome. I’ve never loved it (though I like it) but it grows on me more and more each day. [name]Cally[/name] is rather feminine to me, but I like [name]Cal[/name]…[name]Callum[/name] as a full name is the best option though imo.

I have a [name]Calum[/name] (we preferred the simpler spelling–just like [name]Philip[/name] or [name]Phillip[/name], I guess.) Now that he has been wearing it for 2 + years, I have to say that I still love it. We call him [name]Cal[/name] all the time, even, and I never wanted to do that while pregnant. =)

I have to say I’m quite biased. I’m a teacher and have come across 3 Callums…ALL were TERRORS!!! Beware

not to rain on this parade but just so you have another perspective- the first thing i think of when i hear [name]Callum[/name] is callus… which isn’t necessarily appealing. I can see how you’d find it cute, but those first associations can really make a difference!
