Dylan for a girl???

[Dramamama]

Hiya, basically i'm 24wks pg and we know we are expecting our first little girl (we already have a DS) and have just begun to discuss names but can't seem to agree on many the one we both love atm is Dylan, but both feel that we should prob name her something a bit more feminine seeing as Dylan is largely used as a boys name in the uk and we don't want people to think we have 2 boys when we say the childrens names, trouble is we can't seem to find any feminine names we like! help!!!

*unisex sorry....not sure what ubisex is

Non-frilly options...

Brogan
Anna
Faith
Jean
Sara
Alice
June
Jill
Dawn
Rosa

What about Dana or Daria.

Dilys is a girl's name.

How about Dilys? Or Olwen?

Ubisex sounds like Latin to me!

Dylan for a girl is daft.
How about Dilys, Diane, Diana.

PML at Dylana.

Ah, I dont know, I personally wouldnt, no but if you both love it go ahead!!

I like it. It is a tomboyish sort of name, but I think it's different and kinda cool. One of the girls on the last season of Desperate Housewives was called Dylan.

The name just becomes the person for people who know them IFKWIM. e.g. I know a boy named Romilly so even though it's usually a girl's name I always associate it with boys. And I went to school with a girl calle Jamie so I always think of it as a girl's name.

If you both like it then why not go for it!

Robyn? I think thats a great girls name.

There is a mnetter with a girl called Dylan.

Dayna?

Dinah?

There are lots of strong non girly names. Just avoid anything flowery or ending in 'ly'
What about . .
Anna
Olive
Roberta
Tess
Skye

Or Billy ?

No.

Why do people want to give their girls boys' names? HArdly anyone wants to give their boy a girl's name.

I was nearly called Dylan and know a couple of female Dylans.

Turkish female name Dilan is the same pronunciation(ish) if it was an issue that 'Dylan' is perceived by many as a boy's name.

Rowan?

I quite like Dylan for a girl, although what about Noa.

I would be sure and think about HER--will she want to be confused and have people always commenting on her name if she is the only girl with a boy's name.

Thought of some others: Fern, Fearne, Rain, Storme, Madison, Diamond, Emerald, Destiny

i know a girl called darryll,it actually suits her.i have a little girl called finleigh whos 6 yrs.boys names are now so popular for girls,go with what u like.

Thanks for all your suggestions! there are actually lots of names you've suggested that i like Fearne is nice but reminds me of Fearne cotton who tbh annoys me though i can't quite put my finger on why? Madison i like too but it's quite commen around here thatlldo pig Billie is on our list along with Robyn

I quite like Dylan for a girl.

I like Billie too - isn't Dawn French's daughter called Billie?

What about Charlie/Charley?

I like Deryn. I have a friend who is Deryn. Welsh name I think.

Frances/ca is lovely. I have a friend named Frankie too and she's bootiful.

My DD is called Rorie.

But Dylan is very boyish, what about Darla?

I always thought Dylan was a welsh girls name? Dillon being americanized (if thats a word)

Welsh friend confirms, but who am I to question!!

If you love it go for it. It not like you want to call her Harold (v obvious boys name)
