Of those two, I like Callen best.


Have you considered:


Callum, Colm, Collin, or Cullen?

I prefer Callen...it's very handsome. I'm not so sure of Carrick (seems like it might get shortened to Carrie,) but it does make me think of Warrick, as in CSI. And I'll also throw in one I saw in a play a couple of months ago--Carthage.

I really appreciate all the input.Carrik is from the original Carrick,I just shortened it a little as I have a 4 year old learning to write his name and I now figure the shorter the sweeter.I lloked up more info on Callen and seems like it is predominantly a girls name.My initial finding had said boy or girl.Now I'm not sure if I should go with it or use Callum which is definitely male.

Probably better than his real name of Archie Leach would have.

It's worked for Cary Elwes, too...but I don't see it working on a kid in this climate.

Callen is traditionally male, but about everything is getting coopted by girls. I know a little pink Randall, for Pete's sake!
