What are your thoughts on River for a boy?

I love it, it's on my list for a future girl but I like it for boys and girls, my entire girl list is quite masculine

Even with the River Phoenix connection I would be inclined to view it as a girl's name, I do like it though.

Just no

I really like it.

It's a dog's name to me. Mostly because I know a dog called that I guess.

I know a girl River.

Tried and true. Makes me think of River Phoenix who had a sad death at a young age but it’s a nice name.
