I grew up in Germany and there are NO Germans called Kurtis I'm afraid. Kurt, however, was a popular first name a few generations ago.

I'm sure there are lots of Germans called Kurtis.

Initials KFC aren't great though.

Curtis is not one of my favourite names but it is nicer with the C spelling. If you love it that's what matters! Just feels a bit 80s to me. I do know another 2 yr old one tho!

Not much, no.

I prefer the traditional spelling with a C. Also means he avoids a lifetime of chicken jokes Smile

Sorry, it's horrible.

KFC ? really?

Uber -chavtastic. It's up there with 'Klay' and 'Karleigh' I'm afraid. You did ask Wink

Not with a k.. Curtis is lovely

dollius · 03/07/2014 12:23

Names starting with K aren't allowed on MN. You'll have to leave.

KFC. It might not work out well...

GiniCooper · 03/07/2014 12:21

Curtis.

KoalaDownUnder · 03/07/2014 12:21

Definitely Curtis, not Kurtis.

Why change the first letter of an otherwise perfectly adequate name?
