Cutter....I haven't heard it before. Not sure if I like it or not. Sorry but after saying it a few times what came to mind was Tutter off of Bear in the Big Blue House, lol.
Cutter? As in a person who mutilates themself due to a psychological problem that causes them to relieve psychological pain by focusing on the more controlable physical pain? Definitely not a good idea. This mental disorder is becoming increasingly well-known
I understand if you've decided against Quinten and need to start looking again, but Cutter isn't the answer, I'm afraid. :( Luckily, I've already read the other replies and Annie saved me a lot of typing. ;) The term cutter refers to someone who purposefully and repeatedly cuts themselves in order to deal with psychological pain they cannot control through physical pain they inflict themselves (and, therefore, CAN control). So a familiar term for a person who engages in self-mutilation, but not an attractive naming option for a child.

Hi there, Kendra. Lets all take a deep breath, LOL. It'll be okay!
April 21st is still about two months away, so there's no need to worry. I'm personally not a huge fan of Quinten, but I do like it better than Cutter. I just don't see 'cut' as being a very nice verb, & therefore wouldn't want to name my child after it.
I'm sorry to be so negative. Would you mind if I suggested a few names that are simalar to Cutter & Kaden that you might like? Here we go...
Beckett
Brecken/Breckin
Bracken
Baxter
Catcher
Carter
Carson
Crispin
Dexter
Greyson
Jett
Jasper
Kieran
Keenan
Keegan
Ryder
Saywer
Tucker
Tanner
Tyler
Thatcher
Thane
Weston
Xavier
Xander
Zane
Hope this helps!
The mental disorder was the first thing I thought of when I saw Cutter, too.
Do you like Cullen? It's similar but doesn't have any negative associations.
Other similar names:
Keanan
Collier
Conall
Quinn
Kent
Keaton
I'm not a huge fan of Cutter. I did like the previous poster's suggestion of Cullen a lot though. I know a man named Cutler, which is also a nice alternative imo.
Are you definitely going with a "K" sound? I like Quinten, but here are a few other suggestions:
Calder
Calhoun
Culver
Cuyler
Reed
Devlin
Bowen
Good Luck!
It's okay. I like Quinten better though.
