Another go around. Feminine?

[kayport87]

Cassidy for a boy. I like it, and it also allows me to have my nn Cas that I've been stuck on. But unfortunately, people think female because, of course, most the boy names have to turn to unisex names. It was a boy name first. We want to use my dads name for the middle name, Brian.

Is it too feminine now?

It does sound quite feminine. Also, the combination of Cassidy and Brian made me smile. They are just such very different names.

Cassian? Could be an alternative

I prefer Caspar or Cassian. Also recently met a little Casimir, called Cass, which I liked.

I would presume Cassidy was a girl.

I actually really like Cassidy Brian, it's something I never would have even thought to put together

Or Casimir Brian? Last name is Dejesus (day-hay-zoos)

Casper

Caspian.

Cassius

Are you Law & Order fans? Detective Brian Cassidy.

I would go Casimir. It’s nice.

@OurMamInHavianas

Are you Law & Order fans? Detective Brian Cassidy.

my first thought!

Caius is another option

I really like Casimir actually!

But Cassidy is also fine. Yes, it could be a female name but so could Rowan, Robin etc. I don't think it's a big deal

Also, the nn Cas is unisex anyway..

I love Cassidy.
Alternatives maybe:
Cass - this is a name, St Cass of Bangor has a feast day on 26 April, another Cass was an ancestor of the Dál Cáis including the Ó Briens.
Cassán - two saints, one 4 June, one 19 June

I don’t like Cassidy. Have you considered Cassander?

To me Cassidy is a surname.

PP gives evidence to support use of Cass as a name in its own right - sounds.
Or Cassius.

*sounds good

Cassidy doesn't go well with the surname.

I would do Caspar. Caspar Dejesus works well.

I like Casimir but unless you're Polish it's a bit random, particularly with a Spanish surname.

Cassidy is really naff. If I picture a Cassidy I picture a blonde American playboy bunny type. Are you the poster who was asking about Cassian and has another child namef Ezekiel? Ezekiel and Cassian are PERFECT together - both old, strong, rare, dignified, great nicknames. Cassidy is none of these things. Hate it! (Sorry. I'm just trying to be brutally honest so you don't abandon a gorgeous name for a horrible one.).

Casimir and Cassien are my favourites, also Cassius and Casper are lovely. Cassidy is by far the WORST Cas-starting name (and yes, 100% sounds like a girl's name)

I knew a female Cassidy. It's alright for a female first name but is nothing special.

I like Cassidy for a boy, it’s cool

It will always be an Irish pub to me, a pub near the Burren in Clare.

Caspian goes well with the surname!
