Re: Callan?

I've not heard Callan before, but it does not strike me as feminine; I automatically thought of Allan and Callahan. If you are concerned about that perhaps you could go with Callahan (still soft-sounding, but familiar as masculine) and use Callan as a nickname. I do think Cailean would be mispronounced all the time and might be mistaken as feminine.
