Lennox

[lolaandcharl]

A unisex name - but would you prefer it for a boy or a girl (or do you not like the name at all)?

Nice as a surname

Yes, it's a perfectly good surname.

I dislike it as a first name.

I like it, I prefer it for a girl.

Love it for a girl.

I like Lenny as a NN.

I like it for a girl!

Awful for a girl, not great for a boy.

I wouldn't personally see it as a unisex name. Not my taste for a girl at all. Ok for a boy but again not really to my taste

To me it's firstly a surname, then a very masculine first name - as in Lennox Lewis. It wouldn't occur to me that it could be female.

Please don't call your DD Lennox.

I think of it as a boy's name - like Lennox Lewis - or a surname.

Leni is nice for a girl.

Surname. Mary Lennox was the heroine in The Secret Garden.

I know a lovely 10 year old boy named Lennox who utterly suits his name. Lennox will always be a boys name to me because of him x

I adore it for both

I guess Lennox Lewis is the first to spring to mind for most, but it makes me think of Annie Lennox, so I see it more as a girls name.

I guess it's unisex but a shorteningto Lennie would put me off using it for a girl! (or a boy, actually, but even more so a girl)

I've never considered it a girls name. Boys only.

It’s not a ‘unisex’ name.

Would only see it as a boys name

but it makes me think of Annie Lennox, so I see it more as a girls name

That doesn't make sense. Lennox is her surname. If the famous person was Andrew Lennox that wouldn't make it a boy's name.

It's a surname. It's bad on a boy. Bloody awful on a girl.

I’ve only met girls called Lennox.

Not keen for either but I'd prefer it as a boy

Love it as a girls name

I've only ever heard it in reference to boys.

That doesn't make sense

That doesn't change my opinion though.

Surname names are very commonly unisex these days. Americans love a surname as a girl's name.
