Just that really - if you hear Casey, do you think boy or girl?

I know the name is unisex, just wondered about first impressions.

That's a boy spelling to me. Girls would be Kacy or Kayce.

Girl.

Tough one - I think I've known more girls called that (some with different spellings), but I prefer it for a boy.

Casey Jones = boy

Gothambutnotahamster · 22/06/2023 23:17

Boy - Casey Jones

I think the name could be male or female. I don't think I have ever met a Casey.

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 22/06/2023 23:17

Boy - by a smidge. Wouldn't be at all surprised to hear it on a girl though (but please use the Casey spelling whatever sex your DC is!)

Boy

My cousin actually has a son called Casey so it should make me think boy. When it's written down I assume boy. But when just said out loud I still think girl! I think it's just a bit close to Stacy/Macy/Marcy/Kayleigh etc

Anniissa · 22/06/2023 23:21

Known a few Casey’s - all boys - so for me I guess boy.

NeverendingCircus · 22/06/2023 23:21

Generally boy, but it is unisex.

Smidge001 · 22/06/2023 23:22

Depends where you live. Definitely a boy name & spelling when I lived in Las Vegas.

If I heard the name said aloud I’d think girl but if I saw it written down and spelt Casey I’d think boy
