Partly to prove a point to DH, partly to confirm my thoughts is the above name for a boy or girl in your mind?

The Genesis that I know is male.

Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke...

It reminds me of Patrick Bateman. And the chainsaw and the see through anorak.

I’d guess at boy. I think. No idea why.

My friends daughter is called Genesis, so it's a girls name as far as I'm aware.

FelicityPike · 14/07/2020 13:44

I’m surprised it’s not written as “Jennysis”.
It’s not a name.

If I came across someone called Genesis Smith, to be honest I don’t think I would have a clue whether they were male or female, could be either. Gene is a boy’s name so there’s that, but Jen is a girl’s name. I am increasingly envisaging Genesis Smith as an old bearded man, but she could also be a crime fighting futuristic space girl in a catsuit.

Boy?

NannyR · 14/07/2020 13:43

A book.

heartshapedcloud · 14/07/2020 13:43

Girls name to me!

Puppybum · 14/07/2020 13:42

I liked Genesis with Peter Gabriel

utterlynutty · 14/07/2020 13:42

It's the first book in the Old Testament.

NewIdeasToday · 14/07/2020 13:42

It’s not a suitable name for either.

Thisismytimetoshine · 14/07/2020 13:41

It's for a deity, not a mere human...

BabloHoney · 14/07/2020 13:40

More a name for a Phil Collins fronted rock band I’d say Smile

Gene for a boy. Genevieve for a girl
