Callie or Kallie, thoughts?

[MamaFifi05]

Expecting DD2 in a couple of months and would love a litmus test on the name Callie/Kallie. We went quite traditional/safe for our first daughter's name so wanted something a bit different (but not too different) for our second. DH absolutely loves Callie, but I wanted to check there aren't any weird associations before we go for it! It would also mean we have two 'ie' names, but not sure if that matters. Thank you ❤️

Really like it either way but prefer Callie. Also just like Allie actually. Cute, non-confusing, also grown up, sounds friendly.

Both lovely OP 🥰 Slightly prefer the K spelling, but honestly wouldn't mind either 🤷‍♀️

Nice name. I prefer the C spelling. For some reason K is a bit too out there for me.

Quite like Callie

The Callie I know is short for Caroline. Both absolutely lovely names 😍

Prefer with a C looks softer!

I'm expecting baby 2 in a couple of months (don't know gender) but if a girl will have an 'ie' name too like my DD1...and if it's a boy will do too! DH and I obviously like 'ie' names 🤣

I prefer Callie

Prefer C spelling , also like it as a NN for Caroline

Love it! Really like both spellings but just maybe slightly prefer the C

Love the name Callie - slightly unusual but at the same time very recognisable 😊

I prefer Callie to Kallie.

Callie. Lovely.

Not Kallie.

I used to know a Calista who went by Callie.
I think it's a lovely name.

Prefer C version. It does look like a nn to me though.

I like Callie - very pretty. I personally like it best as short for Caroline.

Also a potentially nickname for Calliope which I thnk is a beautiful unusual name (Greek mythology).

I knew a Caroline/Callie- nice name

Where I live these are two completely different names.

Callie - pronounced Cal-ly is a girl name

Kallie - pronounced Cul-ly is a boys name

So if you go for Kallie, be prepared for it to be mispronounced if you were intended on the Cal-ly sound.

Prefer the C spelling. Doesn't look like a full name to me, but I don't like all those short-version names unless they have a proper birth certificate name too.

Definitely with a "C" - the Kardashians have ruined K names! (and I say that as someone with a K name!)

Callie, but as a diminutive of Caroline, Carolina or Calista.
Kallie looks a bit made up.

Prefer Callie

Not sure though if I would personally have it as name without a longer version but honestly it's a very nice name

I prefer Callie spelling but agree with PP I would have it as a shortened version of something, probably Caroline

I love it. DH veto’d it for us but it’s lovely, much prefer it with a C, it feels a bit downmarket with a K to me.

Prefer the Callie spelling
