Corbin or Logan?

[sunleap.livejournal.com]

We are still having a very hard time with boy names. I have had Logan in the back of my head for a while and the husband told me today that he like Corbin. We don't have middle names for either but would just like opinions on both names. good or bad. He had told me earlier in the week that he liked Owen but my dad kept saying Owen sausage and now we hate it!

I like Owen better than Logan or Corbin.
I don't know what Owen Sausage is.

owen's is a brand of sausage and they have an owen's plant where my parents live.

Ah it's like when I loved the name Aurora and my husband said "that is a town!" or Adelaide "that is a street!"

[sunleap.livejournal.com]

it's ridiculous i know. but i can't help it.

[betraythemoment.livejournal.com]

Pfft, if Disney thought it was a good name (Aurora in Sleeping Beauty) it's free game! :D

[miss-tee.livejournal.com]

lol I don't know if my husband has seen Sleeping Beauty

Logan and Corbin are alright. I think I like Corbin a bit more, because I don't hear it as much as Logan.

Logan is really a pretty name!

I have such a love/hate relationship with Corbin, I swear. This post is hard; I think that they're both incredibly trendy, which turns me off of names. I'll throw my vote in for Logan out of the two. Corbin doesn't actually say 'first name' to me.

I have no sweet clue what Owen sausage is or why that would make anybody hate it, but I'd say that Owen is the nicest of the three. Owen sausage. Huh.

Owen's is a brand of sausage and also a restaraunt. I know Logan is somewhat trendy but maybe because my son is 3 I don't hear it so much. As for Corbin, I have never heard a boy named that. Just Corbin Dallas from Fifth Element! But that may be where my husband got the name. Boy names are so hard!

Ahahaha, icon love!!!

[jerseygrits.livejournal.com]

For some reason, I can't stand the name Logan. It's just really unappealing to me. And it makes me think of "log cabin."

I do like Corbin. I associate it with The Fifth Element (Korben Dallas), but that's a good thing to me because I love that movie. :)

[sunleap.livejournal.com]

that is probably where my husband got the name!

How about splitting the difference and going with Colin? :o)

[sunleap.livejournal.com]

My husband hates this name! I don't think it's all that bad.

[mela-chan.livejournal.com]

I prefer Logan to Corbin. But I also like the previous poster's Colin. <3

I like Corbin but hate the nn Corey. That would be enough to keep me from using it. Logan is a little popular for my taste, but it's ok.

Owen sausage? I don't get it. (Owen is my last name and I've never heard that in my life.)

[lovetokate.livejournal.com]

Logan! LOGAN LOGAN LOGAN! I just strongly dislike Corbin for some reason. It doesn't seem a name a boy could grow with. It just seems awfully trendy. I love love love Owen and I'm never heard of Owen sausage.

[sweetrhythms.livejournal.com]

i like them both. i like owen too-probably best of all but if you have a negative association then it's definitely out i guess!

[bright-eyes-jh.livejournal.com]

Amusingly enough, I used to know a set of twins named Corbin and Owen.

[morphinae.livejournal.com]

I have a Corbin Liam :) Obviously I'm partial to that choice.

[betraythemoment.livejournal.com]

Logan = Wolverine! I can't think of it without thinking of X men. Which I assure you is a good thing. I like both of those names you suggested but I like Logan as a first name and Corbin as a middle. Not necessarily together though. :)

[sunleap.livejournal.com]

Logan = Wolverine for me too! I was watching that movie with my son and was thinking that it wasn't such a bad name!

[kilobites.livejournal.com]

Corbin is probably one of my least favorite names so I gotta go with Logan. I think it sounds nice.

[tiarrajanae.livejournal.com]

Logan.

[0o-faerie.livejournal.com]

Logan! It's popular (or trendy) but I think it's pretty, too.

I really don't like Corbin...for some reason it makes me think 'curb' and 'bin', which is not good.

[nothingtolose19.livejournal.com]

I'm not really a fan of either Corbin or Logan, but I really like Owen! I've never heard of Owen sausage either, but I read your reply in previous comments... but if it makes you feel any better, obviously none of us here knew about that! lol.

Logan was at the top of my boy name list 4 years ago until my husband and I realized that X-men and X2 had been extremely popular movies for people of our generation, and the name was becoming extremely trendy as a result.

Corbin... I like at first glance- especially when paired with Logan since it seems more "fresh" in comparison, but the more I think about it in it's own merit, the less I like it. I'm not sure why... It sort of reminds me of Colby, which I hate as a name because making your kid share a name with a type of cheese is terrible. Or it makes me think of garage tools (Corbin > Cord > Extention Cord, is what I think my mind is jumping to in order to get that reference).

I like Owen. It's popular, but not as hot as Logan, so hopefully it will stick around longer and won't sound dated 20 years from now. I get the Owen's sausage reference, but it's not the first thing I think of when I hear the name.

[how-obscure.livejournal.com]

I like Corbin better. I have a 5-year-old cousin named Logan though. Owen is nice too, but obviously, it has a regional association for you.

Some of the names Nymbler suggests from those three are: Gavin, Liam, Benjamin, Ethan, Evan, Ewan, and Keegan.

Corbin was my favorite boys name until i realized my top girls name is Cora.. so i had to pick one. BUT obviously that puts my vote in for Corbin :D. I can't even force myself to make any of the associations some others have so it's safe for me. Not a big fan of Logan, a little too common for me & I think it reminds me of Hogan= Hulk.
