Shannon, Reese, Dakota, and Bailey aren't that girly. Jared Leto's brother is named Shannon, there's a character on Malcolm In The Middle named Reese, I used to have a guy friend named Bailey, and I used to date a guy named Dakota.


They seem more like guy names, except Shannon, that's the only one that truly sounds unisex.

Unisex names please....?

Need something to go with Jaden. No, Jordan doesn't go with it since they both begin with J. (although I do like that name) I don't like Taylor, Ryan,Reece, Pat, Skylar or Lee. Yes, It has to be a unisex name since I'm naming my angel baby. Thank you for any good suggestions. Maybe someone knows of a good website that I haven't been to already.

Unisex names in decline? WDYT?

I saw this article yesterday.





http://www.babynamesgarden.com/unisexbab...





"n 1995 in the United States, 77 names ranked in the Top 1000 in popularity for both boys and girls, according to baby name data from the Social Security Administration. Of those 77 unisex baby names, 67 were “unique,” while 10 were variants, such as Devon, Devin, or Devan.





By 2005, the number of unisex, or androgynous, names appearing on male and female Top 1000 lists had shrunk to 64, including 53 unique names. That’s a drop of about 20% in unisex names over the decade.





The drop is surprising for a couple of reasons. For one thing, people often assume that as more “made-up” names (such as Rylee) enter the language, or as more “placenames” become baby names (think Dakota), more of these names are unisex. That may be true, but there simply aren’t that many “made-up” unisex names in the Top 1000, for either 1995 or 2005.





What did change between 1995 and 2005 were the names themselves. Of the 77 unisex names in 1995, fully 50% (38 names) lost their unisex identity by 2005. Discounting those situations where both names fell out of favor, the name more often moved to the male side of the table rather than the female, contrary to conventional wisdom about unisex names. "





What really surprised me is this last bit above - i.e. about males winning back names, which also seems contrary to what people generally say or assume.





WDYT?

Unisex names in decline? WDYT?
I'm surprised, too, by the trend away from unisex names, but after 30 years of unisex names, maybe young parents are again looking for something different. The current trend toward old-fashioned girls' names such as Sophia, Ava, Emma, Madeline and Isabella gives parents some "new" names that are graceful and feminine for their daughters. Women have more equal opportunities now than they did 30 years ago when parents might have felt that a "stronger" unisex or more masculine name might give them an advantage in the business/professional world.

Name Game: Unisex Names?
Ashley - Male.


Tracey - Male


Shirley - Male


Drew - Male


Reese - Male (Prefer the Rhys spelling)


Terry - Male (Your spelling is trashy, and not at all feminine)


Blake - Male


Leigh - Male (Masculine spelling)


Tony - Male (Trashy spelling)


Billy - Male


Frances - Male


Robin - Male (It will always be associated with the Boy Wonder)


Sidney - Male


Dakota - Not a name. It is a Native American Tribe. Plus is sounds like a dog's name.


Devon - Male


Jordan - Male


Jamie - Male (Trashy spelling. Jamie is the nickname for James, a male's name)


Pat - Nickname.


Charlie - Nickname
Reply:Ashley: Female. Because I mostly hear that name used for females, and because most guys named 'Ashley' spell it 'Ashleigh'.





Tracey: Female. Same reason as the first, except for the spelling part.





Shirley: Female. Shirley temple. :-P





Drew: Other than Drew Barrymore, it's mostly used for males.





Reese: Even though there's Reese Witherspoon, it still sounds pretty masculine. And I'll never get past Reese from Malcolm in the Middle.





Terri: Female. Short for Teresa.





Blake: Male. Just because it sounds like a male's name; it's pretty masculine.





Toni: Male. Toni the Tiger! I've actually never met a female with that name...





Leigh: Never heard that name before. If it's pronounced 'lee', then I'd say male. Unless it was Leia...





Billie: Male.





Frances: Male. Again, Malcolm in the Middle. :-P





Robin: Sounds more like a female name, just because it's a bird.





Sidney: Girl. I've only ever met females with that name.





Dakota: Female. Dakota Fanning.





Devon: Male.





Jordan: Hmm...this is a toughy. I have a female friend named Jordan, although I'd always pictured it used for males. I'm gonna have to say female.





Jayme: Female.





Pat: Male.





Charlie: Male. I've never really heard is used for females...
Reply:Ashley- Female even with this spelling, I think the spelling of Ashleigh is horrible, and I know a boy who spells it Ashlee


Tracey- Female, I've never known a male Tracey


Shirley- Female, as above


Drew- Male even if it is Drew Barrymores name


Reese- Male I know of two who spell it Rhys and Reece, with an 's' I think of Reese Witherspoon who is of course female


Terri- Female I went to school with a girl who spelt it like this I think of Terry as the Male name


Blake- Male, I know of no females with this name and it feels too masculine to be a girls name


Toni- Female, another one I went to school with. I think of Tony as the male


Leigh- Female as above, Lee is the male spelling


Billie- Female as in Bille Piper, Billy is the male spelling although I do know of a man named Billie (and it's not short for William)


Frances- Female, I think of Francis as the male spelling


Robin- Male. The female spelling is Robyn


Sidney- Male. Sydney is the girl from the scream films


Dakota- Female, I've never heard of a boy with this name.


Devon- Female. I know of a boy who spells it Devern


Jordan- Male. I know of a girl with this name and this spelling.


Jayme- neither. I would only ever spell it Jamie which I see as more masculine even though I know of a couple of girls with this spelling.


Pat- Male, because of Postman Pat, although it can be short for Patricia.


Charlie- Male as just Charlie, even though I know of two girl Charlies who were not called Charlotte.
Reply:Ashley - Female because of "Ashley Olsen"


Tracey - Female. I know a girl called Tracey/


Shirley - Female. The barmaid of Eastenders :D

Frances - Males. Frances Fisher from Hollyoaks.


Robin - Female. The bird is like small and pretty like a girl (:


Sidney - Male. Sydney sounds more Female.


Dakota - Female. Dakota Fanning.


Devon - Male. but only because of "Devin the Dude"

Reply:This is just what automatically comes to mind when I hear these names.





Ashley - F/M - I know just as many male Ashleys as female


Tracey - F - have never come across a male Tracey


Shirley - F - Didn't even know this one was unisex


Drew - M - because it seems more masculine to me


Reese - F - becoming very common for girls. The spelling Rhys makes me think of a male


Terri - F - only know female Terris


Blake - M - really masculine sounding


Toni - F/M - although the 'i' on the end makes it more feminine, when I hear the name, I think 'guy'


Leigh -F - feminine spelling, but if I just hear the name, I'd think M


Billie - again, F spelling, M name


Frances - F spelling, M name would be Francis


Robin - F - Besides Robin Williams, I've never actually heard of a male Robin


Sidney - M spelling, F would be Sydney, but if I just heard it, I'd think F


Dakota - F- really common on girls, but not weird for boys


Devon - M - still seems masc to me


Jordan - F/M - a masc name, but my female cousin is called Jordan, so I think 'girl' now =P


Jayme - F spelling, but I think it suits both equally


Pat - F/M - know both F's and M's, so I really don't know


Charlie -M - prefer it on boys, so I think it's more of a male name
Reply:Ashley- girl. I've known more girl Ashleys.


Tracey- girl. Same reason as Ashley.


Shirley- girl. Same reason as above.


Drew- boy. I have a nephew named Drew.


Reese- girl. I think Reese is more for a girl, and Rhys is the more masculine spelling.


Terri- girl. The -i makes it more feminine.


Blake- boy. I've known many boy Blakes, and have only heard of one girl Blake (Blake Lively from GG)


Toni- girl. The i makes it feminine.


Leigh- girl. The spelling is more feminine, Lee would be more masculine.


Billie- girl. The ie is more feminine.


Frances- girl. Francis is the boy spelling.


Robin- girl, because most of the Robins I have met have been girls.


Sidney- boy. I see Sidney as male, and Sydney as female.


Dakota- girl. I've never met a boy Dakota!


Devon- boy. I've met more boy Devons.


Jordan- eh, that's a toughie, cause I've met equal Jordans of both genders.


Jayme- girl. The y, and the fact that the y is before the m, makes it feminine. Jamie is the nn for James.


Pat- girl. I guess I've know more Patricias who have gone by Pat than Patricks with that nickname.


Charlie- boy. My uncle is named Charlie, but I also adore it for girls as a nn for Charlotte or Charlene. So cute.
Reply:Ashley - Girl


Tracey - Girl


Shirley - Girl


Drew - Boy

Terri - Girly, Terry for a male


Blake - Boy


Toni - Girl. Tony for boy

Frances - Girl


Robin - Girl or Boy. Robin Williams, but I prefer it for a girl w/ this spelling too


Sidney - Girl


Dakota - Girl


Devon - Both. But I prefer it for a girl. I like it spelled Devin.


Jordan - Both, sadly. I hate it for a boy!


Jayme - Girl, but I hate it for a girl even with this spelling.


Pat - Both. Patrick/Patricia


Charlie - Boy/Girl
Reply:My name is unisex although its spelt differently. My name is Abbie (feminine version obviously) but in India Abhi is a males name.





I used to write my name Abhi, but then I kept getting funny looks from one of my friends who was Indian, who then explained, I had changed gender, just by changing a few letters in my name lol :D
Reply:Ashley - Both. I'd use it for a boy over a girl.


Tracey - Girl.


Shirley - Girl.


Drew - Girl.


Reese - Girl.


Terri - Boy.


Blake - Girl. Cute for a girl, too popular for a boy.


Toni - Girl. Girl with this spelling.


Leigh - Girl.


Billie - Both. Girl with this spelling.


Frances - Girl.


Robin - Girl.


Sidney - Girl. But this spelling looks more manly.


Dakota - Girl.


Devon - Girl. I like it for either but I'd only use it on a girl (spelled Devin).


Jordan - Girl.


Jayme - Girl. I only like the spelling Jamie.


Pat - Either.


Charlie - Girl. I like it for a girl spelled Charli. I'd never use it for a boy though.

i dont like unisex names. but the ones who i said were boy or girl (not both) should remain that way. a girl named charlie is dumb even though i think i saw it in a movie one time. people are trying too hard to be unique.

Reply:There are female names due to way there spelt, Leigh for example for a man is usually Lee. Toni is Tony, Terri is Terry. I would say there all female names with maybe the exemption of Ashley who can be either gender.

I know Harley is a unisex name but do you think it is more suited to a boy or a girl?

I don't particularly like it but me and my partner were talking about unisex names while we discussing a name for baby no.3 and I always think that although they are unisex they are normally more suited too one sex than the other.





So was just wonder what everyone thought.





I personally think it is more suited to a boy.

I know Harley is a unisex name but do you think it is more suited to a boy or a girl?
I think A boy as well but its funny as I only know wee girl's who are named hardly but I definitely think unisex names are definitely more suited to one sex than the other.
Reply:Personally when I hear the name Harley I don't think of a person, I think of like a pet, or something. I really like the name Harlow though, but it kind of reminds me of the word harlot and that's probably not a good thing, oh yeah anyways. I don't really think that's a good name for a person, I would never name my kid that. %26amp; I know you said you didn't really like it, but I can't really think of whether I think it sounds more like a girl or a boy because I don't really see it as a persons name.





Sorry that was way too long haha.





xx-Shelby
Reply:I always think of Harley as a boy because it reminds me of biker men. You know how that is! lol I don't care for the name but I don't hate it. I can definitely see it on a girl too so but I'd call it a boys name.
Reply:boy- you know like Harley Davidson

Ashton/Ashtyn


Camden/Camdyn

Reply:A girl. It reminds me to much of Hayley or Carly and I don't see a boy with either of those names. Besides I know a little girl named Harleigh who lives down the block. I would never name one of my sons that!
Reply:I think:


Harley- for a boy


Harli- for a girl


Harlie- could be for either





My youngest daughters name is Harli-Lyn
Reply:I agree with you, the name Harley is more suited for a boy.
Reply:It actually reminds me of a dog's name, but if I had to pick it is more suited to a boy.
Reply:Motorcycle
Reply:The only Harley's I know are female but if I were to use it I would use it for a boy.
Reply:Personally I don't like it at all.
Reply:When I hear the name Harley I think of a girl, but thats just me! haha





Its a cute name tho!
Reply:I always thought Harley was a boys name. Never heard of a girl being called Harley so I would say a boy for sure...:o)
Reply:I kind of think that it is more of a girl's name, despite the motorcycle
Reply:definitely a boys name
Reply:I think its more feminine.
Reply:A boy
