what is with giving girls boys names all of a sudden?

i have just been informed that my cousin, mother of a little girl she named Jamie-Lee, has named her second daughter Billie-Joe. they are going to grow up to be truck drivers or something, i can tell.


personaly, my baby girl will be called "Jessica Rose". my partner wants "Mordikai" for a boy (its an old family name) and i like that it can be shortened to a more modern sounding "Kai" as a nickname.

EDIT: for the record, we live in the North-East of England. the hillbilly/redneck thing...urgh.

i don't think that's a recent thing, actually. i went to school with a billie jo and a frankie and i'm in my twenties. regardless, it sounds a bit too hillbilly for my taste. my first thought wouldn't be "boy" it would be "redneck." haha. ;)

errr, a female billie jo and a female frankie, i mean.
