If you hear Casey, do you think boy or girl?

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 it's more commonly used for girls but I much prefer it for a boy.

I think of this too although it probably dates me a little? I don't think it has the same association for Millennials or Gen Z though.

Around here Casey is split pretty much 50/50 with boy/girl with a few KC thrown in.

Girl

Girl but it works for a boy too.

Newt's dolls head in Aliens was called Casey and I've taught a male Casey, so 50:50 for me.

I think of a boy, but I might have actually heard it more often for a girl (although some of them might have had alternative spellings).

I definitely like it better for a boy.

I’ve only ever known it as a boy’s name and had no idea it was unisex! I like Carey which is similar for girls.

Girl

Girl because I know one.

But I think it can be for boys, too.
