If you heard this name would you automatically think girl or boy?

It’s DP top runner for DD1 due next month as a nickname for Francesca. I know a little
boy called Frankie which is putting me
off

I’d think girl but not be surprised by a boy.

My niece is Francesca known as Frankie - we all love it!

I would think boy.

Anyone under 10 or over 60 then I'd think male, otherwise I'd automatically assume a female.

Actually love it for a boy but really dislike it as a girls name.

I think more likely to be a girl but could be a boy because of the popularity of -ie names in boys.
Frank would be a boy though.

I've known 2 boys and 1 girl called Frankie - much prefer it as a nn for a girl

If I had to guess I would expect a little boy but I know it's a name commonly used for both boys and girls so I wouldnt make any assumptions really I would ask if it wasn't obvious

I'd think girl
