Coco

This would be a cute name for a kitten or puppy with brown fur.

I have a friend named Coco who's ironically allergic to chocolate! She goes by her middle name...
My dog is named Coco, and they're both friends! She thinks that it's nice to share a name with my dog.

---

Coco (my friend) was dubbed her name after the hoard of chocolate that was given to her family (after her birth). She also has brown hair and brown eyes, so it fits! But, chocolate breaks her skin out, sadly. Coco doesn't like her name. Be prepared for questions like, "Pebbles or Puffs?".

A few names that can use “Coco” as a nickname: Just to get some ideas out there.

Cornelia = Coco
Coraline = Coco
Cora = Coco
Courtney/Cortney = Coco
Cove = Coco
Corabelle/ Corabella = Coco.

I know it’s a bit out there, but I just love Coco! It’s so fresh and cool. I’d use it as a stand alone or as a nickname for something like Cora or Caroline.

Cocoa beans?

It's so cute on a girl.

Reminds me of my favourite thing to drink. If I were to ever name a human this, I’d use it only on a girl. Also, It sounds like a good name for a dog with dark brown fur.

Coco is a cute nickname, but I'm not really sure which names we can use this for.

I’m not really a fan of this name, and not even on pets. It’s overused and a bit childish for me.

This is a cute name! Maybe a little too cutesy.

This is my name! I have loved it my whole life. I think it is cute and aesthetic! It is a good name around Christmas time because of hot cocoa. I have been told it is really cute. I don't care if it has a bad rating, nothing could ever stop my love for my name! ^w^ My best friend Tyler has called me "Coco bean" since we were seven. I think that suits me too because I luuuvvv coffee! :D.

Please don’t name your daughter Coco. It’s cute as a nickname, but never as a real given name. Very repetitive names like Coco, Cici is another example, are very babyish, should only be used as nicknames and will not suit a grown woman. Sure, call your little one Coco when she’s a toddler, and when she gets older she can be known by her full name. Imagine being 30 and being stuck with the name Coco. Seriously, Coco sounds like something a teen mom would name her child. About age 9 is the cut-off for this name. Coco is a dog’s name, and I can’t imagine it being someone’s real name. Collette is a lovely name and you can use Coco as a nickname.

My friend Cody has this as a nickname. Not terrible but definitely only a nickname this could NEVER be a actual name.

This is so cute! Adorable nickname for Charlotte!

I don't think this is a good name. For proof, just remove the o, replace it with a k, and see what you get.

Coco is cute as a nickname. I know a sweet little girl called Collette who goes by Coco as a nickname. Please don’t call your child this as a stand-alone name on the birth certificate. It’s too childish for a formal name. I remember watching a TV show where a teen mum called her daughter Coco and I wasn’t sure if it was her real name. This name reminds me of coconuts and cocoa beans.

I like this as a nickname. I knew a Coco who’s real name was Charlotte, but she went by Coco.

Adorable name for a cat, but NOT a girl.

Reminds me of that one exploited little girl Coco Quinn, that my kids love watching. Smh. Coco Chanel is an okay namesake. Overall, it's a dog's name.

Lovely nickname for Colleen, Coraline, Cora, Courtney (maybe even Carol if you're pushing it!) But that's all it is, a nickname. That doesn't make it bad though! :)

Trash.

It’s cute but I would definitely not use.

I'm in love with the Coco.

Cute on a pet or as a nickname.

I prefer this as a nickname for Chloe or Caroline rather than an actual legal name.

Coco is a really cute and sweet name for a boy or girl.

I like it as a nickname for other names, maybe names like Christine or Caroline, but I won’t judge someone if this is their full name.

I'm sorry, but Coco really sounds like a stripper name.

My first name is Coco. Just Coco. I was born in 1997. And I absolutely adore my name and always have. Not once has anyone tried to bully me, if anything everyone always said how cool it was and even now each time I go anywhere people compliment my name. People are still so small minded.

I don't like it.

I love the name Coco for a girl. I can vaguely picture it on a boy, but it still doesn't sound masculine enough. The masculine suffix ending name makes it sound feminine when it's referring to the fruit in Hawaii, because boys with girly nature names are girly. It's not the most girly name out there because the "o" sound makes it sound 51% feminine and 49% masculine, but I like it better for a girl.

I love this as a full name as well as a nickname.

Yuck, yuck, yuck!

I LOVE the name Coco. It's pretty and cute and a little insane. So it's good to name your daughter Colleen or Collette etc if you want Coco as a nickname. In 'Coco Caramel' by Cathy Cassidy, the main character is called Coco, just Coco. But she IS a little insane: a twelve-year-old tomboy who thinks she can save the world with cake and smiles.

Coco sounds cute and kind of bada** on a guy, maybe as a nickname though for Cody, Cole or Coburn since it might seem a bit immature for just a first name, but I love it for a guy just as much as for a girl.

Coco as a feminine name is delicate and fascinating, only thanks to Chanel obviously. I rate it 8/10.

My uncle has a dog called Coco, and she is a very nice pit bull, and I met another dog called Coco. I prefer it as a nickname.

Very cute name, also pretty. I named my first hamster Coco.

Everyone saying they don't know what parent in their right mind would name their child Coco, my mother actually is one of those people. I was born in 1989 and grew up before the weird unique name craze hit. My first name is: Coco middle name: Chanel I was actually my mother's first girl after 3 boys, so she went and told the drs not to tell her the sex because she was hoping I'd be a girl. Low & behold when I was born she was pleasantly surprised but had nothing but boy names picked out. My uncle, who was a huge fan of the Chanel perfume suggested my name. As a kid it got lots of laughs when the teachers would call on me. Eventually people just started assuming it was a nick name. As I got older it definitely became a conversation piece. I've had so many,"that's so unique, I love your name", and, "I'm naming my daughter that when I have one". It definitely made me hard to forget & I absolutely love my name.

I would question the judgment of any parent who'd name their kid Coco - not Corinne, not Colette, just... Coco. It's only acceptable as a nickname. Remember your kid is going to be an adult one day, and nobody is going to take her seriously as a doctor or teacher or businesswoman named friggin' Coco.

My nickname is Coco (well Colleen is my real name). People started calling me that when I was a kid because I didn't like my name much and it was easier for my little cousins to say. It eventually just stuck. I like it a lot except when people say it sounds like a choppy stripper name. Now a days most of my cousins call me Coke. I don't think it works well on too many people over the age of 9.

Coco sounds soo CUTE! ^______^ I love this name! :D

My seven year old daughter is named Camilla, but we have called her Coco since before she was born. It suits her perfectly. We call her Camilla at times, which she always has as her grown-up name if she wants.

Well, like other commenters mentioned, this would be cute as a nickname but definitely not acceptable as a full name. Makes me crave hot chocolate too much lol. :)

I like this name even though I know I shouldn't...

I know a girl with this name. And even though every one she meets and tells her name to is a bit confused at first and ask if that is her full name, she is very proud of her name and it makes her stand out next to all the standard/boring normal names.

The name Coco was given to 72 baby girls born in the US in 2012. The same amount of babies were given the name Cheryl. That just doesn't seem right to me.

I've never really liked this name.

However, I recently started liking the name Cosima... and Coco is my favorite potential nickname for that. Don't know if I'd ever actually use it, but I don't actively dislike it anymore.

Coco is a lovely nickname for full names that may be considered heavy on young girls, including but not limited to: Colette, Constance, Cordelia.

I can't imagine anyone giving their daughter this name. Not only is the name itself really bad as a stand-alone name (not as a nickname, which even then I dislike), but this is my dog's name. It fits her- she's a pug- but on a human? Nope, sorry.

It would be a cute nickname but, in my opinion, is terrible as a real name.

I don't like this as a stand-alone name, but it's fine as a nickname.

Coco sounds like a nickname, not a full name. I know a girl that goes by Coco, her name is Caroline.

This would be nice as a nickname for Kokoro or Gabrielle. It makes me think of cocoa, which chocolate is made from. (And, unfortunately, coca, which is made into cocaine. But, then again, indigenous people in Bolivia chew coca leaves, so it can't be so bad.) I love Coco Chanel, and I think Coco is a really cute nickname.

Coco Puffs.

Yum, reminds me of a hot chocolate drink, or one of those celebrity's weird names. For a name; god save that poor soul that was this name. D:

I have a friend named Courtney, I call her Coco and she loves it! I wouldn't name a person this but a nickname that people call them I think is really cute!

This name makes a great nickname for a name that starts with 'Co' but not as a real name. It's sort of hard trying not to laugh if you meet someone with this name.

For some odd reason, I like this name and use it a lot. In every story I write, there seems to be a character named Coco.

In the Carribean Coco also means the private part of a women mostly used in a bad way but if I ever met someone named Coco I would honestly say I wouldn't be able to keep a straight face. =D

This sounds like an okay nickname for a little girl, but it's infantile on a woman. It's a tacky name, and a woman named Coco would have to try hard to convince people that she is intelligent despite not changing her name.

I have no clue as to who would intentionally name their daughter Coco or CoCoa. It seems like a poodle or beagle name. Imagine having your daughter introduce herself: "Hi. My name? CoCo. Yeah, like the hot beverage. No, my mother didn't have a hot chocolate craving when she had me." it would be embarrasing I would think. I don't recommend it, but if you like it. I pity your daughter.

I have to admit I don't like food names -- e.g. Candy -- but this is cute.

This reminds me of Koko the ape (even though it's spelled different).

In Spanish 'Coco' means a person who is extremely ugly. Not a beautiful name.

"Coco" in Spanish does not mean an ugly person. It means "coconut."

Sarahj, COCO in Spanish means coconut. But in my country, besides coconut it has always meant someone who is ugly.

Coco is not a bad name for a girl, but I knew a guy named Coco. Take THAT for embarassment.

People shouldn't be allowed to name a child this. Can you imagine calling out to "Coco" on the playground? The kid would die of embarassment.

I would wonder about the sanity of the parents if they called their kid Coco, celebrity parents included. This is not a suitable name for a pet, let alone a child.

It's a name for a cute little dog. Or a nickname but I wouldn't use it for my baby.

This sounds like a name for a pet. Heck, I wouldn't even give this silly name to a goldfish. I pity anybody whose parents gave this embarrassment to them as a given name.

I couldn't imagine why anyone would intentionally name their kid 'Coco'. It brings to mind a poodle.
