What are your thoughts on the name Cormac, possibly occassionally shortened to Cory. I think it's a nice strong name for a man but struggle to picture it on a baby. Thought?

@Dragongoby - yes, it is

It is Irish. I knew one years ago. I quite like it. Unusual but not too unusual. Strong.

I know a 3yo Cormac, it really suits him

Are you Irish? I am, and it seems a good name to me.

I've never actually heard Cormac shortened, actually, possibly because the emphasis on the first syllable is so strong? The way I say it, Cory is almost longer than Cormac! Also v American.

I like Cormac. I only know one (an adult). Is it Irish?

Reminds me of Caramac.
