Grey would rock. Slade and Drake are also awesome guys names. So is Calum. I
think if I ever gave birth ( http://www.malepregnancy.com ) I'd name it Calum.

Calum is a horrible name.  I hate it when people mispronounce it or call me
Calvin, or Colvin or worst of all-spell it Callum with two Ls.  I had always
wished for something else, a normal name, like Rob or Chris or Mario for the
love of god.

   Be happy that at least your name is *male*.  Being named
   "Calum" is ironically not actually a "calumny."  :)  But
   I sympathize completely with your frustration re: people
   who slaughter the spelling, pronunciation, or even gender.
   At the end of the day, though, having an unusual name is
   an asset in this crowded world, not a curse.
