Not sure about Kaden. I like Ellis.

I agree with pp pretty much word for word. I have no idea how I would pronounce Kielan. Ky-lan? Keel-in? I am very overall the -den names. Ellis is heads and tails better than the other two.

[MissusTexas]

Kielan is pronounced "Key-lan"

Ellis is a family name we're using as a middle name.

[mbcdefg]

I don't like either of them.

How about Kieran, Colin, Connor?

[winofairy]

I like Kielan much better than Kaden. Ellis is a nice name too.

Oh honey, these are bad, so so bad.

If people have to ask how to pronounce it because they wouldn't know where to start and the phonetic pronunciation isn't anywhere close to your perceived pronunciation, you have a problem.

[verandah]

Out of those four names,

Kielan Elllis.

Maco are car-paint-guys and Caden is, shall we say, overdone.

If this is so I like Ellis better than the other two. Good luck!

[miss1991]

In case you where wondering I was not sure if your going to be saying Kai-len or Key-lan I don't like either but I think Kai-len would have been a little better. Kaden I do not like either.

Absolutely this. The choices you gave us pretty much suck, sorry OP!

[lollipopsandcrisps]

There is no possible way you are serious.

You'd be better off going with La-a.


ETA: I spelled the gloriousness that is La-a incorrectly. FIXED IT.

[citybee]

I can't even vote. They are both bad. Sorry.

[oliver's bear]

I prefer Kielan Ellis.

Thank you to all who offered constructive criticism, and the rest of you can fuck off

Ya I had no idea how to pronounce that name either. Is there a different spelling for it?

You should probably practice this phrase as if you chose to name your child this way, you'll be needing it . . . often.

[mcgee]

Key-lan... like "keelin' over after too much to drink"? Really?

Kaden isn't great, but it's a helluva lot better than anything pronounced Key-lan.

Ditto Habbsies... if you're this snippy about it now, it's only going to get worse when the kid is here.

[beebeeeater]

Oh geez, this poor child.

[mcgee]

For the record, I have met a Keilan or however you want to spell it before... it was a little girl. So if you do go that route, be forewarned that it's also a name used on girls.

[laurenpetro]

is Kielan supposed to be a Gaelic name? if so, it's spelled Caoilin.

[zitiqueen]

If you insist on saddling your kid with these horrid BS made-up names, please give him a middle name that is tranditonal with the traditional spelling. When he gets sick of spelling and pronouncing it for every damned person he meets for 18 years, he'll have something to change it to.

[lyssbobiss, Command, B613]

Goats.
As in, if these are the options, I'd rather fuck a goat.

[housegeek]

As in " Ni Hao Kailan"?
I would encourage you to go back to the drawing board. Or hope your boy turns out to be a girl...

[humpty]

I like Ellis. The other names are no good.

[heightsyankee]

Yeah, so no to those names.

Another vote for Ellis. If it's a family name, even better to use it as a 1st. My older son goes to school with an Ellis and he is a great kid.

[ttt]

You might as well go all out and name him NiHao.

I'm dyyyyyyying!

DY.ING!

[SallyJ]

You forgot the choice of 'neither'. If you want a boy name that starts with a 'K' then don't just change the spelling of a bad name. Choose a name that actually starts with a 'K'.

[GailGoldie]

I really don't like either- they both sound like girl names to me.

Ellis is great (my son's middle name is Ellison, after my grandfather... sadly it's being used a lot more for girls lately, oh well).
