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

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

I think "first one bumped off in a bad US teen horror film".

Then I think boy.

Casey Jones reeling and a rolling Casey Jones la la la

Sorry to be pedantic but it was "a steamin and a rollin" because it was a song about a train engineer on the Cannonball Express.

God I'm old as I can remember every word of that from about 50 years ago but can't remember what I did yesterday!

I'm going to have that song in my head all day now!

Surname in Ireland, would consider it a girls name with the y sound.

PickledScrump · 23/06/2023 18:22

The only one I know is a man, but I do find it quite feminine and would assume girl. Either way it’s not a nice name

IsabelaYourBoyfriendsHere · 24/06/2023 12:09

I would think girl. My daughter is called Cassie and sometimes gets mistaken as Casey, I'm not a fan. 😬

Minimooncat · 24/06/2023 12:12

Girl

Pertinentowl · 24/06/2023 12:16

American girl.
