It makes me think of the singer from Little Mix.

The platypus is my first thought. I'm not too keen personally, it's a bit masculine for my taste.

It seems perhaps a little nicknamey to me too, but otherwise it's a good, easy to spell/pronoune name that isn't overused. If you both like it, why not?

My first thought is Kevin and Perry. Second one is that girl from Little Mix that got dumped by Zayn (not sure why I know this). It seems like a nickname to me, like it should be short for something.

Personally I don't really like it - it's not awful but just doesn't seem like a full name to me. It might be okay as a nickname but not the full name and I wouldn't think of it as a girls name either. To be honest my first thought was of 'Kevin and Perry' from the Harry Enfield sketch. That's the only place I have heard the name before and of course he's a boy.

That said with baby names it's not important want anyone else thinks so if you both like it then use it.
