Only with family.

Does your sister use the name Devon now as an adult?

[TheSporkforeatingkyriarchy]

It's my sister's name, she was repeatedly being put on the boy's list and being called he by school administration (very embarrassed when she was called to the office because "his" mother was there). She spent most of her teen years using various nicknames, mostly variants of her middle names (as did I).

Really don't like it, but if you like it then why would you care what I think, go for it.

Sorry, I'd always be thinking of the custard.

Sounds ugly to me.

[FortyFacedFuckers]

I love it, it was on my girls list when I had DS.

[Marli1980]

Is very nice

[BillyBanter]

you can't please everyone so go with what you like!

[Breezy1985]

I know a Devon, she's 5.

Don't love it, and it's not my thing at all but there's a lot more worse names out there.

Devon Aoki from Sin City...

[Rhubarbgarden]

Not keen

My dd whos 13 months is called Devon, and i love it!!!

I met a little girl about 6 years ago called Devon and i d never heard it before, but it instantly stuck to me.

4 years later, i got pregnant and knew that if i had a girl her name would be Devon.

I ve never been to Devon, nor live anywhere near there.

Its not very common at all. My mother hates it, but i dont give a shit, because i love it

[Hadmeathello]

Don't like it, sorry.

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

I know one - a girl.

I think it's dreadul for either a boy or a girl tbh.

[YouHaveBeenOutbid]

If I met a child called Devon (boy or girl) I'd assume she was called after where she was conceived! Don't like it at all, sorry!

[Locketjuice]

My cousins a girl and called Devon she's 19, I personally don't like it, but I don't hate it, it's just a 'meh' name IMO

[SweetCarolinePomPomPom]

Horrible. But then I don't really like it for a boy either.

[superlambanana]

I think it works better on a girl than a boy. I wouldn't use it myself but I don't think there's anything wrong with it and would consider it unusual rather than weird.

[TheNunsOfGavarone]

I can't see the attraction at all.

[Rainbowshine]

Sorry,it reminds me of the older chap in Knightrider who was Michael Knight's boss...

[RoadToTuapeka]

I know two Devon's, both in their late 30s. Both men. No reason imo it shouldn't be a girl's name. It's not my favourite name but it's not the worst I've ever heard.

[Onesleeptillwembley]

Nope, don't like it.

[TheCricketWidow]

I also know a devon, i like it.

[CountingStars]

Although if you live in or very near to Devon, I wouldn't recommend it!
