Colby

Fantastic balance between not being boring, but also not being odd. It has a wild wild west feel to it. Like Colby will come into town and kick ass!

The only Colby I ever met was female. I guess it's okay for either gender, since it didn't sound particularly unusual on her and I have no trouble seeing it on a boy. I wouldn't use it myself, but I don't hate it.

Dumb name. It doesn't sound amusing at all.

I don't like it. Nothing interesting about it. Boring name and not much class either.

Total dumb jock name. Colby's not that bright.

I have this friend named Colby, he's different from all the boys I've met because he's different in good ways. I think it's a very unique name for such a person.

Makes me think of cheese. Colby is 100% masculine to me.

It seems really strong and cool, I would name a kid it.

My grandson was given the name Colby and I love it. Reminds of a midwestern cowboy. We like the fact that he has a twin sister and their names do not rhyme. Don't really care for the name for a girl.

It’s okay.

This is my husband’s first name. He’s a very kind and fun person, so I feel like the name suits him well. Say what you will against the name but it’s 100x better than what his parents almost named him.

“ARGULUS”.

Sounds *cheesy* to me, get it?!? :p.

My first name is Colby, and I like this name. As another man said on this comment page, it makes it so easy to tell who's your friend or not because there are some ways to associate it with derogatory terms. I honestly just think that it's a very underrated name.

My husband's name is Colby. I've always thought the name to be juvenile and feminine. I still think the name is juvenile but I no longer think of it as feminine because my husband is all male (all 220 ripped muscled pounds of him).

I love this name. I never knew about it until I met this boy with it. Now I love the name.

Reminds me of the Mainland Colby cheese ad. "Your friend in the fridge".

It's cute, I'll admit that. But it doesn't really have much substance... It's a bit too modern and youthful for me. However, I think it would be adorable on a dog :) my only problem is when people mess up the spelling (Colbie, Kolby, etc.) and/or when it's used on girls. This name is not at all suited for a grown woman.

I love it for a boy, but these days it's probably too "girly" for a boy. I agree with post above that says it's not really suited for a grown woman. Maybe not even a grown man, now that I think about it. But it's cute for a little boy in my opinion.

My husband's middle name is Colby. I wouldn't have put it past his father to name him after the cheese. Ironically the actually meaning of the name relates to coal, or coal mining. My husband is a mining engineer who studied in coal mines.

This name sounds very juvenile. It is also overused and celebrity-inspired. I can't picture this name on a resume.

I don't like this name. Makes me think of cheese.

My name is Colby. I love the name for a girl. It's very unique. I've only met one other female Colby. I used to hate my name when I was young, but it really grew on me. The cheese jokes get old, but there could definitely be worse jokes.

Colby to me is WAY too feminine for a boy. It just doesn't strike me as a masculine name.

Colby is a great name for a boy. I know a 12 year old boy with this name, he is a pretty neat kid.

I have always liked the name Colby. Not overly used which is nice. I do personally prefer it for a boy though.

My daughter's name is Kolbie. I changed the spelling to make it more feminine and to not associate with cheese. :)

I like the way this name sounds, but I would never name someone this because it always reminds me of Colby Jack cheese. :(

My whole family is named Colby. It's a tradition in my family. This name means so much to us.
