meredith for a boy? really?

[pinkysmith.livejournal.com]

as far as i know, that's always been a unisex name. but i wouldn't dare do that to my child right now. that could also be b/c it's my niece's middle name.

Over here (in the UK) Meredith has always been more common on men. The only female Meredith I've ever met was American.

[sweetest-asylum.livejournal.com]

hmm. good to know.

[satunian.livejournal.com]

true, but also like Ashley, it's more of a girls' name now. (At least in my neck of the woods, can't speak for everywhere)

I'm in the UK and I've never actually met a female Ashley!

I read that Meredith was her father's name- but still...ouch

It looks like I'm alone, but I actually love the name Meredith for a boy. :)

Interesting coincidence: One of my best girl friends is Meridith and her ex-boyfriend is Daniel. *lol*

I love Meredith for a boy, too. It's very masculine to me, but in a soft, gentle, subtle way. A Mr. Bingley type, if you will.

I know it's unisex, and I see how it could work on a boy, but Grey's Anatomy has turned it into a very feminine name for me.

I know Meredith was originally a male name, but I don't think anyone in the US sees it as one now. :^/

This!

Yep

I don't like Meredith anyways, I think of the fiance from Parent Trap... and then I wouldn't use it on a boy these days...

[sliveredlight.livejournal.com]

Not my favorite name, but a very feminine seeming one to me as well (in Canada). Also a name of a female character in Dragon Age II, which doesn't help.

Daniel, I love.

Hmm. I think I like Meredith better as a boys name, actually.

[melly-issa.livejournal.com]

How about Ivana Mohr-Cox?

[pinkysmith.livejournal.com]

rofl - that would be worse than a boy named meredith.

[lilacmermaid.livejournal.com]

Not my favourite name ever, but in general I do love boys names-->girls names-->boys names, if that makes sense :)

(I love names like Jordan, Morgan, Kelly on boys.)
