Callum or Archie?

[devonie]

Which do u prefer?? Middle name will be Reece. Brother is Jack. Thx.

Callum.

Archie

Archie

Callum, every second boy at DD and DS2 nursery is called Archie, it's the new Alfie.

Callum. Archie is so popular right now, it will date quickly. Plus it sounds like a nn, not a proper first name IMO.

And Callum goes really well with a brother Jack. Two strong names.

Callum although I know far more Callums (teenagers) than Archies.

Archie is becoming ubiquitous and I can't stand the nicknames as first names trend (ditto Alfie, Charlie, Harry). In years to come, Archie and Alfie will be seen as very much of their era (like it is a fair bet that a Kevin was born in the 70/ early 80s or a Sandra or a Janice was born in the 50s or 60s)

Callum, for all the reasons above.

There's millions of archies and Alfies I can't stand those cheeky chappie names, callum is lovely

Callum lovely strong name and less common around here anyway!

Another vote for Callum. I know a few Archie and Alfie kids already and while cute for a baby - they're not great for later on. Alfie is on our list as DH loves it but it won't be what we pick.

I prefer Callum, it's a stronger name and less trendy than Archie.

Callum lovely strong name and less common around here anyway!

Don't move to Scotland then! Tis wall to wall Callums, although they tend to be on their mid 20s.

Love the name Callum! :-)

Callum. I really disliked Archie (and Alfie) as names exactly as people above have said.

Archie, I have an irrational dislike of the name Callum

Callum.

Callum. As PP said, Archie is way too overused at the minute.

I think Archie but that's because of it's the name we are having if our baby is a boy x

Callum.

Archie is too cutsie.

Callum is a bit 90s

Callum by about a million miles.
