She's my dd's friend btw, and about the same age as Victoria Beckham's SON Brooklyn!

Are you presenting a child's name to be sniggered at, rather than looking for responses to a name you are considering yourself?

And LOL at "SON" - pretty sure that as a name Brooklyn is not gender-specific...

I think it suits a girl better than a boy. I really don't like the name though.

Horrid but if you were to use it for a child I do think it would suit a girl rather than a boy. It's probably the "Lyn" bit...

No not for a girl or a boy imho.

If we assume it's ok then why not Gateshead, Battersea or Wallasey?
