Is the name Jude better on a boy or girl?

[tillytok]

I've always had it down as a boys name, but starting to like it for a girl!

Whenever I hear the name I always think of a boy. I definitely prefer it on a boy though out of the two

I love the name. I think it works equally well for either.

I think it works for both, personal preference is first name for a boy but I love it as a middle name for a girl! I have a coworker with a Daisy Jude and I love it:)

My niece is Jude so I tend to think girl first.

As a girl's name it's short for Judith. I know a couple of female Judes!

I think it works both ways, but it very popular for boys at the minute.

It's a boys name. Some people use it as a nickname for a girl named Judy or Judith.

That said, having read Jude the Obscure, it's not a name I would choose.

I think of it as a girls name - short for Judith. It’s common among 50 year old ladies around me. I’ve never met a boy called Jude but I can see from this site that it’s trendy at the moment for baby boys.

I think it’s a boys name - although I can only think of Jude Law.

Jude Bellingham, Jude Law, Hey Jude.
For a girl or woman I'd think it was short for Judith or Judy.

I know both. Works for both I think. Nice name.

Boy

Boy, because of Jude Bellingham.

Most football pundits expect him to establish himself as the best player in the world over the next couple of years, he is very likely to become the next England captain and to become a household name among people with no interest in football.

It's a boys name, of biblical origin I think.
If a heard of a girl called Jude, I would presume it was a nickname for Judith.

I’ve always thought of it as a male name. I know two female Jude’s but both a nickname for Judith.

Boy , personally don't love the Judith/ Judy association

Boy as full name, girl as nickname (for Judith)

Girls name.

It's short for Judith. I know ow several female Judes and Judies.

Jude means Jew in German

It's a boy's name. If you wouldn't call a boy Sophie, don't call a girl Jude.

Prefer it for a boy

I like it much better for a boy.

It's a boys name.

Boy

Boy, because it's a boy's name.

Boy, and ice cream.
