[Facts] Calix
What happened? It just came to my attention that Calix has been removed from the database. Anyone know why? Mike C, what gives? photo image_zps50478a13.jpg

There were about 20 names in the database that I had been unable to categorize. That is, their usage was listed as "?". These names were probably added to the database over 10 years ago when standards were more lax.When I did the last update I removed these uncategorized names. I may at some point add them again if warranted. Calix was used by 44 boys in the US last year, so it could be categorized as a rare English name.

Doesn't Calix relate to Callistus / Callixtus?Also it could be a creative spelling of a nature name - a Calyx is part of a flower.
