Coll

Coll is a boy's name with Gaelic origin. Sometimes used as a shortened form of Nicholas, Coll can act as a sweet yet subtle name to commemorate a Christmas baby and honor good old Saint Nick. Scottish and Irish families will use Coll as a shortened form of Colla, which means "high," perfect for letting your little one know that you believe they can reach for the stars. In Irish mythology, Colla Uais spent four years as High King of Ireland. Baby Coll can draw strength from this famous bearer and feel confident that they can tackle whatever life throws at them.
