Name Meaning Origin Popularity Other Gender Rory Red king Irish Share Your Thoughts 5 Comments Mama Kathy Oct 17 at 6:39 am Our son Rory came up with the name Cole while I was pregnant and was very intent on using it. My husband and I could t come to an agreement on a name and baby was no name for days in the hospital. When his brother came to meet him he immediately started calling him Cole and then the nurses did. We ended up loving how it sounded and it suits him. As Rory says, we are brothers even in the stars. I know these two were meant to be together because they had an instant bond. Reply Mama Kathy Jun 11 at 8:41 am My six year old son named him after a friend’s brother and our mailman ? Reply Molly Feb 28 at 6:59 pm Me and my husband agreed on it. I like the name. Reply Chelsea Jun 13 at 3:51 pm It’s the only name my husband and I could remotely agree on. I still don’t like the way the name looks, but I love how it sounds and the little boy who embodies it! Reply Samantha Apr 13 at 11:41 am I wanted something unique but not weird, and a name you don’t hear every day. I love the name Cole because it’s short and sweet but I don’t like when people say “Cole? Like what Santa gives you when your bad?”… And my mother’s maiden name is Coles, so I thought it was nice to give him a name that connected him to his grandmother in a way.
