Tristin
Avery

Tristin, but I only guessed that cos of the somewhat leading question :p

I assumed Tristin was the girl right away. Then again I'm one of the few in this community that thinks Avery is a male name. (And since they are old enough to be a couple, it should have been before the female Avery trend I think)

Tristin is a girl. I went to school with a girl named Tristin.

Oh, wait...maybe it's a trick question...maybe Avery is a girl, too!

Then again, maybe not - maybe Tristin and Avery are two men!

Maybe they're both transgendered!

Why does there have to be "the" girl at all, and why only one if there is one?

Same with me, I definitely think that Avery is more of a male name. :)

[trissyd.livejournal.com]

agreed.
I also prefer it for a boy.

People often mangle spellings to try to put frills and flowers on a male name, so I'm going to go with Tristin as the girl.

Since I refuse to believe anyone could saddle their daughter with either of these names, I'm guessing that it's a male couple. ;)

You know, I never knew there were people out there who still thought of Avery as a male name. I figured it had officially gone the way of "Ashley"

Call me crazy, but to me Avery is female and Tristin is male. I can't picture it any other way.
