Spelling for boy's name

What spelling do you prefer? I’m having a difficult time choosing.

[name_m]Coby[/name_m]
[name_m]Koby[/name_m]
[name_m]Cobe[/name_m]
[name_u]Kobe[/name_u]

I think I’m leaning more towards the two ending in Y but not sure.

It would go with the middle names [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] [name_m]Colin[/name_m]

I’m most familiar with [name_u]Kobe[/name_u] due to the [name_u]Kobe[/name_u] [name_u]Bryant[/name_u] association, but I like [name_m]Coby[/name_m] most of the -y ending options.

At first glance, I would say [name_m]Coby[/name_m], but then I wrote them out:

[name_m]Koby[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] [name_m]Colin[/name_m]
[name_m]Coby[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] [name_m]Colin[/name_m]

and I think [name_m]Koby[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] [name_m]Colin[/name_m] looks more cohesive

[name_m]Koby[/name_m] is my favourite, but I have come across a few Cobys as well. I’m not a big fan of [name_u]Kobe[/name_u] / [name_m]Cobe[/name_m] with an -e.

I like that [name_m]Koby[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] [name_m]Colin[/name_m] doesn’t repeat the C initial. It’s definitely not a big deal, especially because here the K and C make the same sound, but I think it’s more pleasing to the eye, which is something to consider.

[name_m]Koby[/name_m] for sure.

[name_m]Koby[/name_m]

I like [name_u]Kobe[/name_u] best

I think people will generally default to spelling it [name_u]Kobe[/name_u] , especially because of the late basketball icon . I tend to stick with more phonetic spelling or the generally used spelling

I prefer [name_m]Coby[/name_m], however I think it depends a little bit on the middle name you go with, as I find that can change how it looks all together.

For example if you want with a traditional middle name like [name_m]Coby[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] that looks coherent in style, but if say you went with [name_u]Kobe[/name_u] [name_m]Xander[/name_m] that also looks coherent.

I like [name_m]Coby[/name_m] best.

I have to say [name_m]Coby[/name_m]. I really do like the name [name_u]Kobe[/name_u], but I feel like the strong association with [name_u]Kobe[/name_u] [name_u]Bryant[/name_u] would make it a harder name to have.
