Love it! Always thought it a bit cringe but then worked with a male Casey and it really suited him - lovely guy.

Yes, I like it and, to me, Casey is a boys name anyway.

GiddyCrab · 28/02/2025 21:15

Yes it's fine.

HundredMilesAnHour · 28/02/2025 21:19

I know a Casey. He’s a barrister. He’s the only Casey I know but the name suits him.

BatchCookBabe · 28/02/2025 21:20

I thought it was a boys name though.....???

HumphreysCorner · 28/02/2025 21:22

Absolutely 👍🏻

Moreteaandchocolate · 28/02/2025 21:23

Yes, I quite like it.

KayEmAy · 28/02/2025 21:25

So many Yays! I actually prefer it as a boys name.

DuckieDodgyHedgyPiggy · 28/02/2025 21:27

Casey Jones was a TV programme back in the day about an engine driver. Sorry, I'm not keen. I prefer it for a boy than a girl though.

Met a couple of American men called that. Don’t mind it

Hmm I’ve only ever known girl Casey’s in real life and I didn’t know it could be a boys name until recently!

I know a lovely male Casey. I’m not a fan of the name though!

Crunchingleaf · 28/02/2025 21:32

It’s a surname where I am from. It’s a great name especially if there is Irish ancestry in the mix.

paranoiaofpufflings · 28/02/2025 21:44

Yes, I love it, one of my favourite boys names.

Mandarinaduck · 28/02/2025 22:40

I know a male Casey. So it seems OK in my book.

Blondebrownorred · 28/02/2025 22:47

Reminds me of the Love Island winner this year (also a man)

mum2jakie · 28/02/2025 22:49

I only know of male Caseys so it's a boy's name for me

It's my 7 year old sons name so I obviously love it

BraverThanTheyThink · 01/03/2025 00:00

I like it, it gives off good vibes to me.
If I didn't know, I'd assume Caseywould be a male.

SnowyintheATL · 01/03/2025 01:36

My dad’s middle name is Casey. Can’t stand the man but love that name.

user1492757084 · 01/03/2025 05:23

Casey is fine for a boy's name.
I know one young man called Casey and one called Case.
They don't know each other.
Both get called Case.

LilacPony · 01/03/2025 05:32

Its lovely. But yes admittedly to me it’s a boy name and I’ve only known boys with the name.

IDontHateRainbows · 01/03/2025 05:37

Only ever known male Caseys. One spelt Kacie but I'm not keen on that spelling, looks like Katie.
