I really like these names but for boys rather than girls. Would it be so wrong to use these for boys?

Kim would be just about acceptable.
DH would probably shoot it down though.

Nursey!!

Sorry OP - I think they might all actually have originally been surnames, then boy's names, then girl's names, anyway. Like Ashley or Lesley or Shirley, as has been said. But I don't think you can use them for boys now, as that's not what people will think of. Don't like them much for girls either to tell the truth.

I know a man called Beverley and another called Tracy.
Not sure whether it is good idea though.

I think Bernard is nice for a girl.

Lesley/Leslie is equally attractive or just go the whole hog and have a boy named Sue

I used to know a man named Allison

What about Shirley?

That was Big Daddy's name

I knew a boy called Stacey at school although I'm wondering if he really was a girl and I've just mis-remembered...

brimfull · 10/01/2010 22:08

YES very wrong

FimBOW · 10/01/2010 22:07

You forgot Tracy, that too can be used for a boy.

Not that I would personally use any of them.

TROLL - or you're pissed
utterly ludicrous
do you also like Miles, Oscar and Donald for girls?

yama · 10/01/2010 22:06

I take it you are joking.

hf128219 · 10/01/2010 22:05

Yes - wrong.
