It's better than some of the other farfetched names out there. Actually reminds me of Colton, which isn't a bad name.

I had a student named Cotton. I certainly wouldn't choose it but he was cute and I got used to it.

@loveisstrange: That's exactly what I was thinking!
I agree with @travellingbee: ... I feel like you'd get used to it!

I think of a Southern insurance company called Cotton States. Not a bad name, but doesn't imediately strike me as a first name.

I'm not digging it at all, and that's saying something since both of my kids have last names as first names and I generally like unique names!

Might as well name your baby Flannel or Shovel or Splash or Fax Machine.....

@Rainbow Sprinkles: Fax Machine was on our short list. Way to kill our vibe.

Great. Now I have "the touch, the feel of Cotton..." stuck in my head.

I could get on board with this, but I think it's because I know an elderly lady named Cotton and she is SPUNKY. It's not a name I would probably choose but I can appreciate it.

As a teacher, it's spellable, pronounceable and phonetic, so I'm good with it!

It is a real name, albeit a very old one! I also think of cotton mather or cotton weary - neither of which are necessarily positive associations. I don't hate it, though.
