It's Klingon.

Oh Gosh just don't.

Elquota · 05/06/2013 22:28

I thought of the medicine too.

GW297 · 05/06/2013 22:02

Horrendous name!

miffybun73 · 05/06/2013 13:13

Just awful, please don't do it.

I know a lovely Caelan. I'm not mad on the name, tbh, but prefer the C spelling by miles to the K one.

ifancyashandy · 05/06/2013 11:11

Sounds like a recently discovered element. Awful.

notallytuts · 05/06/2013 11:06

my first thought was keloid, like the type of scarring...

SoupDragon · 05/06/2013 07:03

No. Do not use whatever name you want.

Remember that it is your child you are naming and they are the ones that will have to live with any choice you make.

tilbatilba · 05/06/2013 05:53

ghastly

westcoastnortherner · 05/06/2013 03:48

Sounds like a bad guy from a comic book, sorry

sorchatallulah · 05/06/2013 01:58

There's an Irish boys' name Caolán/Caolan which is pronounced kay-lawn/kay-lan - is this a "different" spelling of that name, or something totally different?

SPsCliffingAllOverMN · 03/06/2013 20:13

Use what ever name you want. Names like that dont go down well here.

My sons name is similar to what JoJo mentioned though

Rhubarbgarden · 03/06/2013 20:10

No, not not

Rhubarbgarden · 03/06/2013 20:09

Rhymes with Draylon. Not.

JojoMags · 03/06/2013 19:50

Just terrible. Dishwasher tablets is being kind. Caelan is nice though.

Justfornowitwilldo · 03/06/2013 15:41

It's clay. So if it's good enough for the Rooneys ...

YDdraigGoch · 03/06/2013 14:47

There used to be a medicine for D&V called Kaolin and Morphine - reminds me of that, or someone from the planet Zork.

This has to be a wind up, surely??!!

ImaginaryHat · 03/06/2013 14:46

Not my cup of tea at all I'm afraid

StitchAteMySleep · 03/06/2013 13:04

I thought Star trek.

Then I thought colon.

I don't like it.

nenevomito · 03/06/2013 12:58

It depends on whether you are writing a Sci-Fi novel, or planning to name your child.

If the former, its fab. If the latter, can't say I would.

spiderlight · 03/06/2013 12:56

I know a lovely little Caelan and variations on the name do seem to be becoming quite popular, but the Kaelon spelling just looks a bit made-up and awkward, sorry.

Hedwig3 · 03/06/2013 12:52

I know a little girl called Kaelin and a little boy called Kaelen.

Pronounced Kay-lin and Kay-lun.

When she was born Kaelin's mummy's MIL commented "Oh, like the medicine kaolin and morphine?"
