Conor

So you're telling me this name literally means "I wanted a puppy". An older sibling had to have come up with this.

I don't like Conor or Connor. Both are ugly as hell.

I still prefer Connor, but Conor is cool too.

I don't like this name. Connor is better and Conor sounds uncommon to me.

Very handsome. I like it more than Connor.

Adorned by Irish Kings of bygone eras and still the 4th most common name here, I may use it due to its historical standing here, the double N is more popular in England but this is the Irish Version and it's an Irish name so I will spell it 'Conor' if I use it.

I like Connor better.

I LOVE this name. It's a way better spelling than Connor or Conner, and is really handsome and strong. Before I heard of the spelling Conor, I thought I didn't like the name, but now I love it.

It sounds like a very strong and masculine name.

I never knew what this name meant, but it seems quite amusing.

Born in 59 in the middle of the USA and named Conor. It's a joy to see the name becoming more and more common here (though I prefer the 1 N 2 O's spelling). I think I was in my thirties before I heard of another Conor locally and now hardly a day goes by that I don't see reference to it. Cheers!

Not a bad name at all, though I prefer the spelling Connor. :)

I named my son Conor after the character in the book Trinity as well, Conor Larkin. He was written as a very strong man who placed honor, integrity and family above all things and was always true to his word. I thought it was a strong name for a baby boy and a great name to grow into.

I like this name because it's strong and masculine but also goes well with a young boy. I don't like the name "Connor", though.

I only love this spelling of the name. It just seems so much more Irish to me, but "Conor" also looks so much lighter and nicer than "Connor" does. I also love it because of Conor Larkin from 'Trinity' by Leon Uris.

I guess you can blame the Highlander movie for America's erroneous spelling. For the same reason I guess I always thought Connor was Scottish. It's never too late to learn something new. I don't care how it's spelled I still think it's a nice name for a male as it fits both adolescents as well as adults. I feel sorry for any girl who is given a male name maybe because I hate my own name so much. After thirty years it's only now starting to grow on me.

I love this name, but with this spelling only. Such a cool meaning also.

This is my cousin's name, but it's spelled Conner.
I do like it on a girl -please don't throw eggs at me- but spelled Konner or some way like that. When I picture a girl named Konner, I picture someone who's artistic and outspoken.
When I think of a guy named Conor, I think of a football jock who's nice.

I think this is a great name, and for some reason, I think this looks better than Connor, even though it doesn't matter so damn much. I simply find that the name sounds good on children and adults alike, but I'd never use this for girls like some people, as the name truly sounds masculine without being over-the-top as such. Makes me think of pale, dark-haired, slender guys, and I swear it's not just Conor Oberst.

I used this name for my son. It was taken from the book Trinity by Leon Uris. I felt it represented our Irish heritage well. Conor takes some garbage for it being spelled "different" but he knows the history of the name and will explain it to anyone!

The only anglicization worth a damn. Connor and Conner suck eggs.

I named my little boy Conor. In my opinion this is the only way you can spell Conor. To me it sounds like a very strong and masculine name.

Conor is a strong and classic name. This spelling is uncommon outside of Ireland but it is nevertheless the BEST spelling.

This is my much younger brother's name and I have loved it long before he was born, it is a family name. I do belive that Conor is as this site shows a variant of the name Connor and I also quote this site that this name comes "From the Gaelic name Conchobhar which means "dog lover" or "wolf lover". This was the name of an early king of Ulster. Irish legends tell of his tragic desire for Deirdre." I find this to be a strong Scottish name, and was sad to see that under usage Scotland is not even listed. My fathers side of my family of proud Scottish descent pronounce this name Con-nore and do spell it Connor. I personally like Connor best, prefering it to other spellings such as Conner, Conor and Konnor.

I think Conor sounds like a strong and handsome name. If you're expecting a child call it Conor if it's a boy and some people say it's lucky.
