Hi everybody! I'm Australian, and my husband's Irish, and we're expecting a baby boy but we're not quite sure what to call him. No "Aussie" names have really appealed to me but my husband brought up the Irish name "Carroll" and I must say I love it. We are a bit concerned about his future, though, because how many boys do you see these days with the name "Carroll", even though it is a unisex name?! Any thoughts? Thanks!

Hmm not sure, it's a surname to me ! Never heard of it as a first name for a boy . Being Scottish it's pretty much a no from me because of the rr sound , sounds awful in my voice lol
