Just that really - if you hear Casey, do you think boy or girl?

I know the name is unisex, just wondered about first impressions.

I think "Cannonball Express"

I tend to think Casey = boy Kacey = girl. Mostly because we had a girl in primary school named after Kacey Ainsworth

Boy

Only ever met one. He's a boy. Also known it as a nickname for someone whose initials are KC, also male.

Boy! And I love it!! (But DH veto'd it 😭).

Also reminds me of Casey Braxton from home and away Grin

I think of it as a boys name. Specifically an American high school aged boy 😂

salamithumbs · 27/06/2023 12:45

Just came back to say the girl who served me coffee just now was called Casey!

KayEmAy · 26/06/2023 20:51

Boy

Though I have probably met an equal number of both and consider a strong neutral name, I just personally like it more as a boy name so that's probably why my brain assumes it first

It's a unisex name and I have had the same dilemma because I love the name. With the spelling Casey (with the C)I think boy and Kacey (with a K) i think girl. I was thinking of using Casey as a boys name myself.
