What do people think of this name?

I really like it but I wondered if people thought it was going to become hugely popular or not? It's not really a problem if it does though! I just wondered if people knew any Caleb's? I notice it's jumped from being 104th most popular in 2009 to 87th in 2010 which is a big jump.

I did post a while back about the name Roscoe. I think people might think this is a slight improvement :)

I love Caleb. Unusual but not freaky weird.

It's quite popular round here. I help run a toddler group & think there are 2, also know of at least one more. Am "up north" and haven't heard it mispronounced. Lovely name though.

Know of a Caleb born last month Smile

Always looks like an anagram to me!

I love it, was my boys choice for DD.
Did you watch desperate housewives? Wasn't there a Caleb in it a long time ago who was either kept in the basement or kept his brother in the basement, perhaps thats where the dark and sinister images come from?

married just tried to work out your anagram but I've had a glass of wine and the lead has snapped in my pencil....?

It's a teenage mum kind of name.

Clawdy · 08/03/2012 13:21

And what on earth might that be? Angry
