They are both names that are likely to be shortened by friends and I prefer Cal to Brad, so Calvin
But it does make me think 'and Hobbes' or 'Klein'.

Dreadful. They sound like two sleazy marketing guys in 1960s Chicago.

Both sound very 90s/noughties American to me.

I like Calvin but not Bradley.

Calvin’s a good name.

Bradly seems quite dated now but I like Calvin.
