Calder for a boy?

I've heard of a few boys being named this lately, and I quite like it!

One of the reasons is that I really like Cade as a nn, but don't like Cadence or Caden at all.

Thoughts?

Reminds me of Calder Park Zoo.

Ah, see I went to school with a Calder, so in my head it's always a surname. Perhaps I'm unusual in that regard.

Yup, I'm all-American :o

I don't like any of those names, actually, and can't bear Madison, Kennedy, etc. But maybe as I don't know anyone with Calder as a surname it doesn't strike me as the same?

Personally I'm not that keen on the 'surname as first name' trend BUT if you like the Riley/Bailey/Taylor style names, I like the nn Cade so it's a nice one. It's very American, but given your name I suspect you can get away with that!
