I have a feeling how this name is going to go down....

Any thoughts on Kip for a boy? Not short for anything, just Kip on its own.
Any suggestions for other names I might like would be great. I seem to like short boys names like Tom and Max but not keen on how popular they are. Tom is top at the moment.
Help!

I have taught a Kip, but it was short for Kipling.

Kip Noble was an ice hockey player.

I quite like the name.

Wow, loads of suggestions this morning! Thank you!!
TeamEdward - brilliant lists!! I'm going to browse through once the munchkin is in bed tonight. They look promising though!
Nothing wrong with Kit at all, just not for me.
Gah!! You may have me with UKIP!!
