I like some boys names for girls... but I think of Dylan is a complete boys name... if you do "Dylan Riley" you're just asking for trouble. If you REALLY want the name, put a really girlie middle name with it... If you like the sounds of Dylan, but want something more feminine how about another name that ends in a "lynn"sound?

Your boys name is nice tho!

i hate Dylan for a girl, it's all boy to me.
Isabelle - i do like this, but i think it's too 'frilly', i like the nickname Izzy though
Riley - I love this
Lily - This is cute, i like Lilyana with nickname Lily.
Jade - Like this too, i like Jada/Jayda also.

Joseph's okay, I wouldn't use it, but it's not awful.
Good luck :)

ilove Dylan James for a boy.
Riley Elizabeth is cute.
What about Isabelle Grace, Isabelle Jade ?

Dylan Jade?

I like your girls' names, except for Dylan (knew too many boys named Dylan growing up). For a boy, I really love Jacob, William, Benjamin and Mason. Scott is okay but I'm not too fond of Joseph. It's an okay name, just very popular and overused in my area.

dylan is definitely a boy's name.
i love jade for a girl's first name though!

It's 100% boy as far as I'm concerned. I know I wouldn't want to be named Dylan :(

Jade, Lily and Isabelle are nice.

Dylan- wooahh there, that's a boys name! It should stay a boys name, i don't care what Charlies Angels says!
Isabelle- Beautiful, i love it spelt this way.
Riley- Oh i'm gonna contradict myself, because as much as i hate Dylan for a girl, i kinda like Riley. I prefer it for a boy though.
Lily- This name is going to become as overused as Madison isnt it. *sighs* i love it though
Jade- Chav name. Used to be pretty but i hate it now.

Ohhh I hope your prediction on Lily doesn't happen!

Oh and i love Joseph Scott. I know twins called Callum & Joseph Scott. I love both those names actually.

i like dylan for a girl, but it might be better for the boy. you could easily go with dylan joseph or dylan scott.
some girl combos:
liliana jade
lily jane
isabella riley
riley jade

Jade would be a good middle name for ALL the girl names you've chosen. I also think Joseph Scott is nice, if you don't mind it being extremely popular.

[krazyhippie.livejournal.com]

It's probably less popular than Riley, Lily, Dylan, and Jade.

Dylan = boy's name. Same with Riley. Isabelle, Lily and Jade are all lovely girl's names though.

while i like dylan for a boy, i think its really nice for a girl too. i dont like joseph, too zzzzz. all the others i really like, except jade.

I would advise against Dylan... I teach preschool and there are 4 Dylans between just the 3 and 4 year old classes, and one Dillon. It is a really popular boy name. If you want to go for the tomboyish name I would go with someting less popular. Also popular are the Camerons, Jacobs, Jacks and Rileys. For girls I have multiples of Mckennas, Haileys, Isabells, and KYLIES. Oh so many Kylies. Mia and Mya are popular too.

I almost want to cry at the thought of Dylan for a girl... and I also wonder why you're not considering it if you have a boy. I don't mean to be rude - but I don't mind some boys names (e.g Riley, Jordan) for girls... but no matter how hard I try, I can't see Dylan as a girls name.. it's as strong a boys name as Patrick or David... sorry

That being said, if you MUST have it as a girl's name, I agree with what others have said - the middle name must be 100% female with no ambiguity. You couldn't have a name like "Dylan Riley ____" written down on a classroom roll or job application etc, and expect people to know she's female. So that would rule out Riley, and also I think Jade, because I have met a guy called Jade before..and if I saw the name "Dylan Jade" I'd think "hmm he has a bit of a feminine middle name", but I wouldn't think, "oh it must be a girl." Whereas I would realise it was a girl if I saw, say, "Dylan Jessica" or "Dylan Isabelle" etc.

I love Joseph, it's one of my favourite boys names.

Not Dylan for a girl! Please no!

[dukes-flygirl.livejournal.com]

I have a co-worker who's daughter is Dylan Victoria.

My daughter is Ryleigh Jane (Version of Riley)

I like the other names you are thinking about for a girl.

Joseph Scott is a good name too!

Leave Dylan for the boys, please.
