I like the one where you ditch that name and go with a real one.

I was coming here to say... "I have no preferred spelling" but I think you summed it up best.

[solitudete.livejournal.com]

I think Casen would be ok, but I don't like either.

[cherryboomstick.livejournal.com]

Kasen, Casen, Kason, Cason, Kayson, Cayson, Kaysen, Caysen... :P

I don't know. I think the way you have it spelled is fine... it'd probably be my personal preference.

Also, I don't really get the need to be rude about other people's name choices? She didn't ask for people's opinions on the name, she asked for people's preferences on the spelling.

[mommyaubrey.livejournal.com]

thank you. :)

This. I think I'm almost done posting to this community because I kind of get the feeling that people come here to be rude to others with different opinions and tastes in names. There are nicer ways to disagree or suggest stuff or give advice. Tired of getting bashed and seeing bashing over baby names, which mean a lot to people.

[spaceandclouds.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I completely agree. Wow, just wow.

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Politely expressing a dislike for a certain name is one thing, but some of these comments are just insulting and ridiculous. This is not "Oh No They Didn't - Baby Names".

Seconded.

[frost.livejournal.com]

Err. Is Kasen a real name? I don't think I've ever heard/seen it before. That said, uh... If it's a legit name, then use the legit spelling. I have no real preference (Kasen v. Casen) otherwise, because both look weird/made-up to me. =/

I think Nicholas James is nice on its own.

[mommyaubrey.livejournal.com]

Kasen is on baby names and i've seen Casen on someone older before.

Nicholas and James are both family names.. don't like em used as firsts, feels like someone is more favored...

[frost.livejournal.com]

Ah, okay. =)
In the case of one member feeling more favored... I would probably just tell everyone that the order used is the flow/sound I preferred.

Anyway, yea, after sitting and looking at the spellings for awhile, I've decided on Kasen.

[frost.livejournal.com]

Okay, I've decided.
I generally like the soft way "C" looks, but in this case, I think I prefer the "K" (Kasen). Casen looks like misspelled Casey.

Kason/Cason looks really weird, and those versions with the "Y" thrown in look like the versions "creative" people would use. =(

[spaceandclouds.livejournal.com]

Don't get discouraged by people being OMG!
If you like a name, you like it! I think I like the C spelling better.

[smallandneedy.livejournal.com]

I dunno, it reminds me of cheese for some reason. And I think I prefer Cayson or Caysen, not because I like y's, but they just look more like a name to me and not a cheese.

[spaceandclouds.livejournal.com]

It's funny you say that, because in Dutch, 'kazen' means 'cheeses'! It's the plural! xD

[smallandneedy.livejournal.com]

haha that might be why then :D My friend is dutch so I've probably heard it from her!

[aquilinum.livejournal.com]

I immediately thought "sounds like casein (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casein)" — so you're not alone.

[miss-tee.livejournal.com]

how about Carson?

[mommyaubrey.livejournal.com]

BAD connotation :P

[pegasus2o5.livejournal.com]

Well, it's not my kind of name, really, but if you're decided on it... I think I like Casen best. Kasen isn't awful. Kayson is the kind of overelaboration I normally hate, but in this case it seems to make the name more masculine.

(Nicholas and James I like a lot.)

[mommyaubrey.livejournal.com]

its currently just a for now thing, no babies in the near future :) thanks!

[laminy.livejournal.com]

Since I have never seen it before, I'll just say Kasen because I'm not sure what else it could be. I do generally like C's better than K's, but Kasen is fine.

[mommyaubrey.livejournal.com]

:)

[how-obscure.livejournal.com]

I think I would like Cayson best by itself, but I think Kasen looks better with the other names. Kasen isn't really my style, but I think the combo has a pretty nice flow. I'm sorry for the rudeness some of the people here have shown you.

[mommyaubrey.livejournal.com]

thank you :)

[gipro2003.livejournal.com]

I went to high school with a Kason. I think I actually like Kasen or Casen more though.

[mommyaubrey.livejournal.com]

thanks!

[after-the-ashes.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a kre8tyve version of Jason, so I can't get past that. There'd be no right spelling. I guess I'd go with Casen since Casey is a real name. Although, I don't like it either.

[a-tergo-lupi.livejournal.com]

This.
Also, Casein. Yurgh.

[myiris.livejournal.com]

My wife has a cousin named Casen, so this is how I always imagine it to be spelled, but I can imagine it spelled Cason, Kason, Kasen, and C/Kayson, C/Kaysen, though the 'y' versions are a little feminine imo.

For what it's worth, I actually really like this name and if not for having someone by that name in the family, it would be on our list too.

[mommyaubrey.livejournal.com]

thank you! :)

[duckduckcaboose.livejournal.com]

I think that out of all the spelling others have listed, Cayson looks the best to me. I don't necessarily like the name, though, because it makes me think of an old gangster movie or something "we're casin' the joint."

[mommyaubrey.livejournal.com]

bahah :) thank you :P i don't think i'd think of that livin in a hick town and all :)

[becomingun.livejournal.com]

Don't like the name because it just not my style, but I think that Cason or Cayson looks SO MUCH NICER than any of the spellings with a K. It looks a little more dignified, you know? My rule is to always picture names on a wedding invitation and a resumé, and if it looks like it doesn't fit, don't use it. I don't think any of the K spellings "fit". It becomes like Kyle: A name for someone under the age of 9.

[mommyaubrey.livejournal.com]

hmm interesting, thank you :)
