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.

Curtis Frederick Coughlin any better?

Choccyhobnob · 03/07/2014 13:19

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

PeterParkerSays · 03/07/2014 12:30

Sorry, it's horrible.

donnie · 03/07/2014 12:25

KFC ? really?

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

puthyjip43 · 03/07/2014 12:23

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.

goshdarnit · 03/07/2014 12:21

KFC. It might not work out well...

GiniCooper · 03/07/2014 12:21

Curtis.

KoalaDownUnder · 03/07/2014 12:21

Definitely Curtis, not Kurtis.

SugarMiceInTheRain · 03/07/2014 12:19

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