I honestly dislike this name so much I just can't stand the name Cole. I don't understand why someone would ever let their child walk around being named Cole. I just don't understand the name it is not practical in any way, it's just a terrible name.

Cole is such a cool name. I love it as a nickname for Nicholas or by itself. It makes me think of the amazing singer Nat King Cole (if you don’t know who he is, listen to his Christmas album now! I don’t care what time of year it is).

I think this is a great name for a boy! I have someone in my school that's named Cole and I think it could be used for a girl, but it's more common for guys.

Cole from Ninjago.
Also, I have a friend named Kole (that's the way he spells it). I've always liked it, and it suits him. He always has to say "it's Kole with a 'K'" though.

The name "Cole" has a Greek origin as well. The Greek origin appears to stem from the name "Nicholas" which also means "victory to the people" or "people's victory." This is how my parents named me. Researching my name in years past, I've found numerous sources stating this as well. I'd appreciate it if you'd add this context.
On a whimsical note: Cole Slaw is named thus because Cole/Kol means "cabbage" in a couple of languages.

Cole also comes from Nicholas (Biblical). Nicholas most likely passed through English and Italian versions to reach Cole. In Irish, Cole can mean boy as well.

Cole is a name I absolutely plan to use for my first (or only) son. I love the simplicity and practicality of it. There is such a 'coolness factor' that comes with the name when I do hear it, which is not often. If I had two sons (twins or not) I would name them Cole and Dean. I'm in love with those names and love how excellent they go together! (:

I never thought much about the name Cole until I saw a Starbucks cup in the trash with the name "Coal" scrawled on it. I never found out if it was a joke, if the barista couldn't spell, if that was actually the person's name. Now I can never hear the name Cole without thinking of a sooty carbon compound.

My maiden surname was Cole, and I honestly LOVED it as a surname... my new one is much messier. I named my son Cole, for multiple reasons - 1) it's a homage to my family's roots, and sometimes I feel like it's hard for mothers to pass a naming tradition to their sons 2) it's a simple, strong name that's perfect for both a little boy and a grown man, and 3) my little boy has deep brown (almost black) eyes and was born with dark brown hair... his name is a literal match to himself.
It's a little weird when gathering with the very extended family, such as at weddings and such, but both of our immediate families thought that it was a wonderful idea.

While I saw that the name Cole was "trendy" I disagree completely I have met very few people named Cole besides myself. While Cole may seem like an ugly name because it reminds you of what is supposedly put in naughty kids stockings, that doesn't mean you have to hate the name when you hear it. If you think that Cole is a bland name think again. Cole, while it is a short name, it was used as a nickname for people with dark hair or dark skin because of the color of coal, but that does not mean it has to be a nickname. I know somebody with a last name Cole and I find it is a suiting name. I understand if you think I'm being biased because of my name but I'm not. I find this name suitable for the people that have it and think it should be used more by itself instead of some abbreviation for Nicholas.

My name is Nicole, and (as I feel it is too girly for me) I'm thinking about asking people to call me Cole. I love the name, and I think it makes a great nickname for a Nicole that doesn't want to stick with the girly-sounding Nicole or Nikki (or Nicki or Nicci or Nikky or however you deign to spell it). It's a great name.

I named my second son Cole. But I added another first name after Cole, because it is such a short name. He is Cole Anthony. I just love that Nicholas idea, that's brilliant! Cute nicknames occur from Cole as well. Like Coleslaw!
