Coby... am I mad for loving this name!?

[Lozzabell]

My 3rd boy is due in October...
Both my husband and I like George. We have a Jack and a William already.

However... I can't shake off the name Coby.
My husband isn't keen... he thinks it's 'out there'.

Is it!?

[felizsun]

Jacob and coby as a nickname could work if he doesnt like Coby by itself x

[Sophronia]

I would suggest Jacob with Coby for short, but you already have a Jack which might be too similar.

[AndNoneForGretchenWieners]

I like it, it's unusual but reminds me of the football player Cobi Jones.

[SignoraStronza]

Surprised no-one has suggested 'Corbyn'. Nickname Coby. Very relevant for the times.

[ShuttyTown]

My friend has a Kobe.

[Ditsy1980]

I like Coby. I don't think it's too out there.

[Rockaby]

I like Jacob with nn Coby.

[Sugarpiehoneyeye]

❤️ Koby.
Go for it OP, why not.

[Sophronia]

I know a Colby which could be an alternative?

[NSEA]

I know a coby. He is adorable.

[BuzzKillington]

Kobe beef - that's what I think of.

[ColourfulOrangex]

I like it although seems a bit different to your other boys and you may get asked if you mean Cody but it's a cute name

[countycouncil]

I like it but it definitely deviates from the theme you have going with your other boys. I like Cody too.

[olympicsrock]

I know a Kobi who is a 13 year old boy

[olympicsrock]

Yes it is a bit out there though

[Tommy]

I know a Coby - 40 yea old woman. Definitely a girl's name in my book

[MinnowAndTheBear]

It will be forever misheard as Toby

[blahthisistoohard]

Coby doesn't 'fit' very well with your other boys names. Toby might be a better option?

[oldestmumaintheworld]

Its not just 'out there' it's ridiculous. Please don't be one of those parents, unless you live in Tennessee of course, in which case it's fine.

[thisismadness77]

I knew a Jacob Toby 'Coby'

[TesticlesInTheBlender]

It really doesn't fit with your other more traditional name. Stick with George.

[Joeybee]

I prefer George. However I think Coby is fine. It isn't too out there. In Australia it's a pretty popular name, so maybe that's why I don't think it's 'out there'.

[FizzyGreenWater]

Not very keen, I think you'll have folk equally thinking you mean Toby or Cody... It's also just a bit meh really! Not much to it. Not a brilliant sound and a bit made-uppy.

I think poor Coby will feel a bit short-changed next to William and Jack!

[Sugarpiehoneyeye]

Jack, William and Jonathan (Joby).

[TheGirlOnTheLanding]

Please please don't go for suggestion of Joby. Scottish slang for shit.
