Masculine and incorrect

[amyeliz.livejournal.com]

A friend on facebook just announced the arrival of her NIECE:

Eliot Dru

This is a triple offense, in my opinion.

1) Those are both male names

2) *Elliot

3) *Drew

I WILL concede that, when I really think about it and remove all memory of Elliot being a male name...it actually sounds feminine and pretty. But I imagine it being spelled Elliette (which is hideous, but I can work on it).

Thoughts? Judgements? Snarky, witty observations?

Generally, I'm really not a fan of male names on girls, but Elliot is the exception. I think it's kind of cute.
