In a restaurant today a lady had a son named Colten. I'd never heard this name before, and I immediately thought of a horse. I don't really like it.

Thoughts?

When I taught swim lessons, I had a little boy named Colton. He was about a year old at the time, so he's maybe 4 now.

I don't like it because it's hard for me to say. Something about the way I talk or something, but maybe it's a regional thing that it's hard to say because even his mother had a hard time getting it out sometimes. It just doesn't roll off my/our tongues well.

I've known a lot of kids with the name - actually, I think it's a little too trendy for my liking. It's funny that you've never heard it - and it can't be regional, since I'm in Canada, and another poster said it's common in NZ... you must just be lucky, I guess. ;)

I know a Colter... he's in his 30s and goes by Colt. He's great, I hate his name.

I went to school with a guy named Kolton. He was weird.

That's how certain Americans pronounced the name of a former co-worker of mine - Carlton. Totally different pronunciation in our accent but they couldn't hear the difference.

I've met a few boys (around 4yrs old) called Colton. I don't like it much.

I actually like Colten and am/would consider it for a boy. We're from Texas, and it is common where we live. I know a Colton, a Koltan, and a Colten.

I know a few teenage boys named Colton, but they all spell it with the -ON not -EN.

Did she happen to look like a horse by any chance?
