I can think of hundreds of names that are feminised from the masculine but I am stumped to think of a single name that is the opposite
Roberta
Louisa
Frederica
Josephine
Alexandra
etc etc
I mean bloody hundreds.
Any example of a female name becoming masculine? I mean a common everyday name.
Maybe Lindsay which was a male name in Scotland but is now considered female....................
My name is feminised by adding an 'a' at the end.
