I love Kelton for a boy. I'm pretending the boy you know is named Kelton, instead of just Kelt. Kelt is terrible. Emerald is.. different. Not bad, just different.
I know a woman called Emerald who goes by Emi and seems to try to hide her real name. I actually like it on her, though, which is surprising because it's not a name I would ever ever like.
Kelt sounds like someone wanted an Irish-Celtic sounding name and got creative with the spelling. Emerald is lovely, though I'd never be brave enough to use is. I don't see why it's any different then the other Gemstone names, such as Ruby, Pearl, Opal..this one just doesn't sound so old-ladyish.
There was an 8th grader at the school my husband taught at last year named Colt. He was a freaking cool kid! Loved him to pieces, so the name Colt gives me warm fuzzies! I also know a 3 year old named Colter. I cant say that I like his name.

Date: 2006-09-23 10:01 pm (UTC)Then again.. I wanted to name my son Colt.
Emerald reminds me too much of the Wizard of Oz.
She might as well have been named Dorthy.
