[Games] Kolbe is not a variation of Colby. (m)
This is something I should probably have mentioned. It's pronunced about like "KOW-bah" and is a Polish surname. I would use it after St. Maximilian Kolbe, who died in Auschwitz to save another man's life.(A lot of my favourite names are after saints.)Array

I've done research on the name...Or rather, someone else did research on it for me (for which I am very grateful) while I also did research, and as far as we can tell, pronuncing it like Colby isn't the proper Polish pronunciation.If a Pole wants to correct me, please do so. It's one of my favourite names, and I always appreciate new info.Array
