Comment left Aug 15, 2008: "Kale is the best name in the world the only Kales i know are the best looking guys in the world" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jul 30, 2008: "I named my son Kale Stephen. We chose it because it is Hawaiian for Charlie. We met at a restaurant called O'Charley's and honeymooned in Hawaii. In Hawaii it's pronounced Kah'-lay. We love it!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 29, 2008: "My name is Kale. It is nice and people always ask, "Like the cabbage (green, lettuce, vegetable,etc)." I am a bit shy, so in school the time was a little tough because most teachers did not pronounce it right. I was called Kyle, Kaley, Kal, and one year a teacher continued to call me a hybrid of Kale + Kyle which was always somewhere inbetween.
To the last poster, my middle name is Stuart. Dorky, but I think it sounds good." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Apr 20, 2007: "We thought we were being original naming our son Kale, but since have heard it three times in movies and several people have said that they know someone named Kale. Most people don't make a remark about it, but some say, "isn't that a vegetable"? However, I still love the name, it's actually short for Kaleb and means faithful. It's very manly." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 17, 2007: "Well, my name sounds like Kale, but i believe i have a unique name, as it is spelt "Kayle". I do not know if it has a special meaning on its own, like if it is actually a real name or derivation from Kale or Kaleb, and if you can help me out my e-mail is hansen_kayle2@hotmail.com (yes, people mispronounce my name as kay-leigh, and I am MALE)" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Mar 16, 2007: "My son is called Kale. I once read (although after he was born) that it is Hawaiian for "manly" which is better than a cabbage. I love the name as much as I love him. He often gets called Kyle or Dale or sometimes Karl. He was born in December 1997." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 10, 2007: "We named our son Kale, born in Geelong
, Vistoria, Australia in 2004. We have heard the name in a movie once and have only heard of one other Kale so far. Spelling is tricky, as we have to spell it regularly for people. Reactions to the name have been favourable though." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 08, 2007: "For those who mocked the name Kale - calling it a 'cabbage', you'll be happy to know that the name originated from the name Kale' (kah-lay) which means brave man, strong man, or brave warrior. I'm sure your names origniated somewhere... but I bet they don't mean something cool like those mentioned above. I love the name." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Nov 17, 2006: "Kale is my sons name. We liked the name Cale but thought it looked better written-out with a K. He gets called Kyle alot. And yes, It is a type lettuce. We didn't discover that untill after the fact, Oh well." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Nov 06, 2006: "Kale is a great name! I thought it was a little ridiculous when my husband insisted that we name our son Kale. I found it in a baby book and it gave the meaning as "brave warrior" so I agreed and have never been sorry! He's an awesome kid and the name suits him! He is strong and brave and very intelligent!"
