I like the name Carl actually we were going to use that name if we had a boy but we ended up with a girl.

Carl is an older name - but I know alot of Carl's that are in their 50's and 60's. I don't know of any younger kids being named Carl. But its your preference.

Answer 10

I think of this guy:

Go for it. I concur with the above re. nice non-cutesy etc. Not over-used. Easy to spell and pronounce. A good solid man's name.

Reading these, I think: What am I going to do if my child befriends one of these 'Ma'Disssone Nevaeh' types? I'm going to automatically dislike the parents...' But it would be awfully hard to think badly of somebody for naming their little boy 'Carl.'

Re. suggestions for 'K' -- not unless you're German.
