Which name? And your reason behind it, if you have one?

Collin, I guess. It just seems more refined to me than Calvin does. I would like it a lot more with just one L though. Calvin reminds me of Alvin and the Chipmunks.

Collin hands downCalvin reminds me of Calvin and Hobbs as well as nerdy boys. Collin is better, even though it still has a whiney boy connotation (think The Secret Garden).

CalvinCalvin, because of Calvin and Hobbes lol.
Also because I've never met one, so it's not tied to a particular age group for me, whereas Collin is associated with 50-60 year old men.
I do like Colin as well, mainly because of The Secret Garden, but spelt with one 'l' rather than two.

Calvin!I'd love to see a little boy named Nicholas who goes by Collin or Cole, but I just don't care for it as much as a given name. I love Calvin, much less trendy and much more handsome. Cal is adorable.

I'd just look at the meanings and decide from there... I suppose bald is a relatively neutral meaning...

Calvin! Collin has always reminded me of throwing up, but I haven't yet figured out the reason.
