Definitely Colin. It's more classic and Collin looks surnamey. I like it!

I like Colin, although it's a dadname here (and a grandfather/great-grandfather name; an out-of-style classic, much like Richard)
I've never seen Collin. It looks very odd to me.

I like Colin very much. Classic, understated, distinguished without overreaching itself.Collin? What is it with names like Colin and Hilary that inspires some people to stick in an extra L? Can't see the point of it.

I really like Colin. Collin irritates the crap out of me, though. It looks so wrong.

My nephew's name is Colin. I think it's okay. I like it, though I don't love it. I far prefer the spelling Colin. Collin seems more like a surname.

I've always sort of liked this. I say sort of because it was never enough to make it into my top names. Spelled either way, I was never able to decide.

I prefer Colin, but I'm not a fan of either and I can't figure out why it's suddenly so popular here. I don't mind the look of Colin, but I dislike the sound of it.
