Would you assume someone with this name was male or female?

Male.

I would say Kiz-met.

Also, you will never get anyone to pronounce it correctly since they will all say Kiss-met. And that's because it's not spelled with an "i" but with a letter that doesn't exist in the English alphabet.

Female.....but honestly don't, its like naming your child 'Karma'

Female. But dd and her friends, although they love her, secretly laugh at her name. Please don't do it.

It means fortune (fate).

CoteDAzur · 02/01/2013 22:34

Female.

I've never heard of this name before--- male?

Sirzy · 02/01/2013 22:30

Probably female?

Don't like it for either though!
