Okay, so most of those I liked as nicknames. Wow, I liked more of those than I thought! Anyway, that's it for girl's names for now! Up next: Macho names, or, as a quote from this book states, "Names so hypermasculine they conjure up a frame from Pumping Iron." LOL. I am looking forward to posting these, they make me laugh!

Alex
Allie
Brett
Carey
Cody
Eden
Jo
Leslie
Lindsay
Robin

But I'd only use these as nicknames, except for Eden, Leslie, Lindsay, and Robin, which work on girls as given names, I think.

I actually love Brett for a girl, but would never use it.

My sisters middle name is Noel and we call her Nole all the time. haha

Allie (same)
Brett
Bryn
Carmen
Cody
Dana
Devon
Dorian (planning on using it as a boy's middle name though)
Greer
Jamie
Kyle
Lindsay
Rory
Wynn

I think I'm one of the few people in this comm. who doesn't mind guy's names on girls, as long as it's at least a little feminine sounding.

I love Brynn (would only use this on a girl), Meredith, Lindsay (with a E), Mallory, Carly, Carmen and Sydney, but I cannot stand hearing Morgan, Toby, Rory and Casey on girls, especially Morgan because it's my top boy's name.
