    I think Carlos, but thats because I've known a Carlos and this is how it was spelt. Karlos is ok.

    Kalous reminds me too much of Callous, which is not really a good thing to me. Thats how I would say it too, i don't think I'd even consider it to be Karlos/Carlos.

    thanks I think he must have been on something when he suggested it lol. I liked it with a K ( thought it was a bit more modern) It must have been pregnancy brain because when I see you guys spell it it looks fine.

    Annabelle has a doll called Carlos, so this is how I would spell it. But there are no rules how ever you and Dp like it spelt

    Carlos.

    Kalous makes me think that it sounds like the model of a car

    I too was going to say Carlos ... but when i was pregnant i was obsessed with boy's names starting with " K " so therefore i'm gonna say i love it spelt " KARLOS "

    (it's a middle name after all for your child so he won't have to worry too much about having to spell it too often)

    I say stick to Carlos....it just looks more normal! Whatever normal is!!! If you stick to the K...don't add the U!

    Carlos is the traditional spelling but I don't mind Karlos now that I'm seeing it in print!

    Kalous I don't think would ever be pronounced right. I looked at it and thought it was pronounced KaLOOSE. ? ? ?

    Carlos.

    Kalous reminds me of callous too. Not nice.
