Colin or Trevor?
So if you had to name a son either Colin or Trevor, which would you choose and why?

Trevor
Trevor because it is cute and slightly nerdy. I also like the nn Trev. Plus I love the Comedian Trevor Noah. Also it is less common in the US.
Colin is okay but I prefer Connor or Ciaran. Colin feels slightly boring and a little too masculine.
Colin feels more like the handsome and charming leading man while Trevor feels like the down-to-earth boy-next-door.
Both are great boy's names so you can't go wrong.

Put me down for Colin.
It's sweet. I really like it.

If Colin was to be pronounced like colon, then I'd choose Trevor.
if it was pronounced like Collins without the s, I'd choose Colin.
But since Colin's pronunciation is so ambiguous, I'd have to choose Trevor.

I've always thought Trevor was kinda doofy. Colin I've always thought was handsome and friendly. It actually was on our back up list for Alex.

We chose Colin - decided it was a sweet name with UK roots that could go equally well on an athlete, band member or writer
Both are good but I just prefer Colin.
UgggHHHHGgggh they are both so undesirable to me.
I guess I'll say Colin because while I know one who is an pasty mansplainer, the only Trevor I know has absolutely no regard for people's homes or personal space. In any interaction I've had the misfortune of sharing with him, he has made a mess of someone's home (literally threw a party at my best friend's home which he was housesitting), or laughed and didn't listen when someone asked him not to smoke inside. His name now reminds me of a Tractor Trailer, just absolutely running over and demolishing anything in his stinky path.
So, Colin.

Colin. I just think it sounds nicer and will age better.
Trevor
Trevor. I guess I slightly prefer the sound, and Ev is a nice nickname. Plus I've probably heard of more Colins than Trevors, so it's a little less dull (but not much).

I think it's a nice name. Colin is okay, but I have known so many of them that I have a lot of strong associations with it.
