No, a cross between Carlton (Fresh prince cousin) and Cole.

Sounds like a charactor from Dallas

I'm afraid it's a no. Don't like it, sounds strange.

Personally, I don't like it, it sounds made up and makes me think of Colt.

Each to their own and all that though.

I like it. MAdre - it's not from Dallas, but there was a character called Colton on a US soap called General Hospital. And he was pretty HOT

Would get mis-spelt as Cotton a lot. Also, sounds like a surname. Sorry, that's a no from me.

Think it sounds good for a little boy/man, not sure a baby would 'wear' it very well. I suppose they are not babies long though so I guess that would pass

It's a no from me too.

It does sound like a made up name - sounds a bit confused between a couple of other names.

I had a PGCE tutor called Colton who was a floundering new boy who used to really get on our nerves...

But then Elizabeth Pantley has a son called Coleton, and she is very nice
