What do you think of this name for a boy

113 replies

Kace for a boy? Pronounced Case. I'm worried it's a bit too trendy and chav but really like it.

Other options are;

Theo
Ashton
Asher
Tristan

But I'm just not feeling them as much especially as it will get shortened to Ash. Also Theo a bit popular at the moment.

Thoughts please?

"Kace, pronounced Case" Grin

Oh god I do love this site. Thanks OP, nice one!

AhNowTed · 08/10/2019 22:27

Sorry it's a no.

Theo is a great name.

I am biased here as one of ours is Asher, i can remember my MIL being horrified by it and saying 'that's new fangled, is it from a book??' Er, yes, a rather old one too...🙄 People do often think it's a girls' name though.

Theo is nice, don't like any of the others, Kace is particularly awful.

MrsP2015 · 08/10/2019 22:20

What about Kade as in short for Kayden?

Keaton, Eden

Case, Casey is nice. Only person I recall is Casey Kasem who did American top 40 chart on radio in 80s, 90s. Also was the voice of Shaggy in Scooby doo Grin

Majorcollywobble · 08/10/2019 22:13

Kace as a name might sentence the child to awful jokes -
Especially if linked with Head , nut, or basket .

pumkinseason · 08/10/2019 22:12

Mace is also a nice spice.

Kace is awful sorry.

Theo is alright.

Don't like the rest.

Cam77 · 08/10/2019 22:05

Jace is ok, but prefer Mace. Theo, or even Trio like the chocolate bar are both ok.

ilovetofu · 08/10/2019 21:59

Casey is better.
I like Theo too.

SlothRunner · 08/10/2019 21:42

Asher is my fave. I like Casey too.

  • Kace
Poochnewbie · 08/10/2019 21:38

I have a Theo and I love it. It means gift from God.
Asher is lovely too. It’s biblical and I think it means ‘he laughs’.

Lace is not a name I’d choose.

newmummalion · 08/10/2019 21:37

I like Tristan, and Casey, but not Kase.

Loveislandaddict · 08/10/2019 21:31

Lace - no.

Other names - fine. You don’t hear many Tristans around.

Pixilicious · 08/10/2019 21:31

Ashton is the best of a very bad bunch

MissHenty · 08/10/2019 21:28

Ps. Tristan is really nice

MissHenty · 08/10/2019 21:27

I really like Theo. Don’t actually know any in my children’s schools

How about

Rex
Rudi/Rudy
Milo/Miles
Hunter
Jackson
Eli
Ellis
Peter

pumkinseason · 08/10/2019 20:52

Like Tristan and Theodore.

Troels · 08/10/2019 20:46

Casey is a boy name, I have a nephew Ashton who's in his 20's I like that name. Ashton Kutcher was partner to Demi Moore for a while.
Casey Jones the train driver it was on TV in the 70's

Theo and Tristan not so much.

Shak- I expect it depends on where you live.
