User Comments about the name Calista
Comment left May 26, 2008: "My daughter's name is Kalysta pronounced
Kaleesta not calista. Young people love her name." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left May 23, 2008: "Calista is my sister's name, she was born in the 50's, long before we knew of Flockhart. A truly unique name. Not trendy or cute, but timeless. I have only met one other woman with this name, and she is close to 90 years old." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Mar 18, 2008: "my name is calista and i feel proud that i am calista" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 06, 2008: "Well my name is Callista with double L. People normally pronounce is as Kuh-lis-tah, but my mother decided that she wanted it to be pronounced as Kay-Lis-Sa with a silent T. People also spell it wrong because of the way you say it. I like my name, also have a nickname "Callie" I barely get called Callista because i tell them my name is Callie." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 14, 2008: "I named my daughter Calista and she is always getting compliments on it, the only problem is when I tell someone her name I usually have to repeat it, people tend to miss the "T" pronunciation and they say "Calissa" I really like how unique it is!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jul 31, 2006: "This is my daughter's name. We spell it Callista, and nickname Callie. This is the perfect name. I have gotten so many compliments on it all her life. It means "most beautiful" in greek, so thats pretty self-explanatory!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 06, 2006: "Almost everytime I tell someone my name, they say "How beautiful!" So I just tell it like it is and say "That's what it means." I absolutely love my name because it's 9 spots away from being THE MOST UNCOMMON NAME in the U.S. No one has it. It makes me really unique, and it makes it really hard to confuse people about "which girl" I am. I AM PROUD TO BE CALISTA!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 19, 2006: "I named my daughter Calista, and it was before Flockhart came to the scene. My husband wanted to spell it with a K, but I still like the C spellling much better." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Mar 19, 2006: "This is a beautiful exotic name.Hardly anybody has it." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 13, 2006: "We named our baby girl Calista and everyone wants to call her Calissa or Carissa. We get a lot of people making weird faces when we tell them her name. Probably because it isn't a name heard very often but that is exactly why we chose it and we think it is a beautiful name for a beautiful girl." (Report as inappropriate)

(Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Aug 03, 2005: "Ally McBeal, first thought. Two, Calista sounds more like the name of a business (Calista Enterprises) rather than a female's name. Not a pleasant sounding name." (Report as inappropriate)
