Opinions of this name. Pronounce like co-ill

Al Cohol

WH1SPERS · 25/01/2019 09:15

Chango has some good suggestions

If you're stuck go with my favourite name Joseph. It's lovely for nicknames, strong yet warm... Grin

Cohol sounds like coil. Nothing attractive comes in coils or is associated with coils!

I read it as co-hole. Looks strange written down and definitely not a nice name (if it is a name).

AdoreTheBeach · 25/01/2019 06:53

Another calpol here. Scrolling by, thought it was calpol then thought OP misspelled Calpol. So it’s a no from me too.

Give yourself a set period if time to write down 100 names however crazy then start whittling them down

TheRealBoswell · 25/01/2019 05:50

Any other alternatives?

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 25/01/2019 05:17

Calpol. Definitely.

LionsHeart · 25/01/2019 05:17

All I saw was Al-cohol. Horrible.

hiddeneverythin · 25/01/2019 05:15

Nope!

jessstan2 · 25/01/2019 05:07

Changomutney, I like the names you have suggested. No child is ever going to grow up feeling embarrassed by any of them.

Sadiesnakes · 25/01/2019 05:05

Al-cohol?Confused

Milasmummy · 25/01/2019 04:08

Looks like kohl, something you line your eye with.

SuchAToDo · 25/01/2019 01:41

It sounds like you are trying to say the name Cole ...but saying it with two syllables instead of one

SuchAToDo · 25/01/2019 01:40

Sorry op the name sounds made up

If you like that style.of name how about an Irish name

Cathal (cah - ill)

Or how about a surname as a first name

Cohen (co- uhn)

llangennith · 25/01/2019 01:28

Sounds like medicine you'd get on prescription

SleepingStandingUp · 25/01/2019 00:55

It looks and sounds awful. Don"t do it.

Just hhomd out and see what he looks like

Names are so so hard.
Get yourself a baby name book.

If you need to ask other people's opinions on it then it's not really right for your baby. You should absoultely love your childs name.

AfterSchoolWorry · 25/01/2019 00:22

Or Cahill? (Pronounced Carl)

Cathal isn't pronounced Carl !!! It's Cahul ! There's no r in it!

ChangoMutney · 25/01/2019 00:16

You want an unusual name for him?

David
Mark
John
Michael
Andrew
Christopher
Richard
William

PennyMordauntsLadyBrain · 25/01/2019 00:12

Dreadful.

It looks like the name of a pharmaceutical company. Google also tells me it’s the name of a Japanese metal band.

If you like the sound, Cathal would be a good alternative.

EdtheBear · 25/01/2019 00:10

Co-holiday
Co-hole - that popped up when I was trying to write co-holiday.

I also agree with the medicine Co-codamol/ Calpol comments above.
Is it actually a name in any language?

I think I'd vote no, but I might be a tad boring when it comes to names.
