What do you think of 'Darryl' for a girl?

[nichib83]

I know of two females called Darryl and also the actress Daryl Hanna. Me and oh really like it. It's not decided, we're just sussing names out right now. What do you think? The thing is, we have a Dylan, Rory and Max. Is Darryl too close to Dylan? Or do you think they're alright together?

I love it, but DP has vetoed it on the grounds of a boy he used to hate at school.

I like it OP

But I have a name that used to be a boy's name and is now more of a girl's name and did get teased for having a boy's name at school (aged about 7-12)

I don't like it at all but I think your boys have really nice names.

I think as well, a girl after 3 boys with what sounds like a boys name (Darryl) looks a bit funny? Fwiw I don't like Darryl for a boy either.

Maybe something like Darcey, Dana, Danielle?

No not good imo

Don't like it. I know a male Darryl and it always seemed to be akin to Darren, Wayne, Dwayne etc.

I Honestly don't know why you'd give a beautiful baby girl a name like Darryl.

Also, yes its too close to Dylan. What about Dahlia?

I really like it.

The name Darryl makes me think of a smart, confident, attractive woman with a good career.

Dylan (lovely) is to close to darryl (not lovely. Sorry)

What about something else unisex - Morgan

I know a female Darryl. She has a sister called Earle and one called Plummie.

Darryl for a boy I hate, quite like it for a girl though!

I josh think Mallory Towers, but then I have a Felicity!

*just

Incidentally, Enid Blyton's husband was called Darrel/Darryl - think that's where the character in the book got her name from! So not sure if it is actually a male/female/unisex name. Personally I quite like it.

If you're having a girl after three boys why not give her a name that is clearly a girl's name?

Love it, and immediately thought of Mallory Towers.

I like it but I think when people hear all your dc names together, they will assume you have four boys.
