I chose [name_m]Crosby[/name_m]. I like [name_m]Zeke[/name_m] but as a nickname for [name_m]Ezekiel[/name_m].

3

I chose [name_m]Nash[/name_m]. I like the feeling of it, similar to [name_u]Dash[/name_u] which has a lot of energy. At first I liked [name_m]Crosby[/name_m] too but to me it’s too similar to Cosby which has a lot of negative connotations with all the recent publicity. But I suppose it’s more directly associated with [name_m]Bing[/name_m] [name_m]Crosby[/name_m] which is a happier connection so still usable if you love it. [name_m]Zeke[/name_m] is a fun name too. Sound mischievous but in a good way.

Thanks for the feedback!

I’m a huge [name_m]Zeke[/name_m] fan. I love [name_u]Cal[/name_u] (this spelling).

6

I picked [name_m]Crosby[/name_m] :slight_smile:

[name_m]Crosby[/name_m]! I was wishy-washy about it until I watched “Parenthood” and really started liking it (there’s a character named [name_m]Crosby[/name_m] on it; sometimes his siblings call him Cros). The others are OK but [name_m]Kal[/name_m] and [name_m]Zeke[/name_m] feel nicknamey and while I like [name_m]Nash[/name_m] fine, [name_m]Crosby[/name_m] just feels livelier.

8

Thanks! [name_m]Crosby[/name_m] seems to be the most popular so far. Kind of surprising to us.

9

That’s where we go the name from too!

10

I voted for [name_m]Zeke[/name_m] and [name_m]Kal[/name_m]. I’ll be honest - [name_m]Crosby[/name_m] just makes me think of Cosby, as in [name_m]Bill[/name_m].

11

That is a concern of ours too. Thanks for in the input.

12

[name_m]Crosby[/name_m] gets my vote.

Makes me think of [name_u]Sidney[/name_u] [name_m]Crosby[/name_m].

13

I love both [name_m]Nash[/name_m] and [name_m]Crosby[/name_m] but had to choose one so it’s [name_m]Crosby[/name_m]! Both are handsome names.

14

Uh oh…maybe we should reconsider? Can we name him Toews or [name_m]Kane[/name_m] instead? :slight_smile:

15

Thanks! We’re glad that both of these names are liked. Tough to decide on one.

16

The only one that I like the sound of is [name_m]Kal[/name_m]. I prefer [name_u]Cal[/name_u], short for [name_m]Calvin[/name_m].

17

Thanks! That’s actually our rationale behind [name_m]Kal[/name_m] with a K. We don’t want people to think his full name is [name_m]Calvin[/name_m].

[name_u]Love[/name_u] your user name BTW. Tell [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] hello. :slight_smile:

18

[name_m]Crosby[/name_m], Stills & [name_m]Nash[/name_m] fans? :slight_smile: I voted [name_m]Kal[/name_m] and [name_m]Nash[/name_m]. They sound the most approachable to me. Good luck!

19

Funny enough, we don’t listen to [name_m]Crosby[/name_m], Stills, [name_m]Nash[/name_m], and [name_m]Young[/name_m] at all. [name_m]Just[/name_m] coincidence! Thanks for the feedback.

I only like [name_m]Zeke[/name_m], I think it’s so cool especially as a nickname for [name_m]Ezekiel[/name_m].
