hey- Maybe someone on here can clear this up for me. I met an older lady who has two sons named Ira and Asa. I'm having a tough time with these LOL. I really dislike both. I've seen Asa before, and always on boys???. It just dosn't seem like a boys name, although I would not like it for a girl, either. and Ira I've never heard of. Anyone?

I've heard both names quite a few times, and all only on males.

funny how some people hear names all the time and some have never heard them

definitely.
Before I met my husband, I honestly had no idea that Loren was a guys' name... but lo and behold, my husband has two close, male friends named Loren. It was a totally new concept to me. :P I had only ever known Lauren as a girls' name, and Loren as an alternate spelling.

Same with me. I know two guys named Loren, one male Lauren, and a zillion female Laurens.
