Cole -- a short name that embodies a lot of richness and depth -- has long been associated with the great songwriter Cole Porter. Currently, Cole, which has been on a roll since the mid-90s, is holding on to its steady popularity, now at Number 94. It's also a Top 50 name in Canada and Scotland.

Old King Cole--which refers to a real British king--is familiar to all kids. Cole was the name of the child in The Sixth Sense and was also the name of--sorry--the notorious outlaw Cole Younger, who was born Thomas Coleman.
