Which name do you like better, Colin or Martin?
We live in the midwest (I don't know if that matters).

I like both a lot.

Martin is probably a bit more cutting edge, and will get a lot of people (non namers especially) turning up their noses at it as an ugly old man name. But it's one of the names I predict will be chart climbing within a few years. Use it now and I think you'd be ahead of trends.

Colin is nice and would probably get a mostly positive response. It's a good name that isn't too common, but is still easily recognized by most people.
