Boys names for girls with cute nicknames

I was wondering about this and I want some advice from you guys what you think. [name_m]Will[/name_m] it be to much and then getting bullied all the time for there names.
[name_f]My[/name_f] idea was
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] nn [name_f]Elle[/name_f] or [name_u]Eli[/name_u]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] nn [name_f]Liv[/name_f] or Oli
Alistar nn [name_u]Ali[/name_u] or
[name_u]Bentley[/name_u] nn [name_u]Lee[/name_u] or
[name_u]Julian[/name_u] nn [name_u]Jules[/name_u] or
[name_u]Maverick[/name_u] nn Mav pronounced like [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u]/Elliott nn [name_f]Elle[/name_f] or [name_u]Eli[/name_u]
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] nn [name_f]Em[/name_f]
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] nn [name_f]Eve[/name_f]
[name_m]Seamus[/name_m] nn [name_u]Shea[/name_u] pronounced like [name_u]Shay[/name_u]

Is this to far and crazy? Let me know? If you have any other names that go along with this theme that will also be helpful. Thank you for hear me out and responding.

Elijah- don’t. [name_f]Elle[/name_f] is a name by itself so just go with that.
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m]- don’t. Maybe [name_f]Olive[/name_f].
Alistar- is this pronounced -star or -stair? It could work.
[name_u]Bentley[/name_u]- it works.
[name_u]Julian[/name_u]- doesn’t work well.
[name_u]Maverick[/name_u]- I personally hate this name so I think it works with no one. [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] is also like [name_f]Elle[/name_f].
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u]- not quite [name_u]Bentley[/name_u] status but getting there.
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u]/ [name_u]Everett[/name_u]- like [name_u]Julian[/name_u].
[name_m]Seamus[/name_m]- just do [name_u]Shea[/name_u].

Bentley could probably work on a girl (though I personally don’t like it) as it fits with the many -ley and -lie names for girls.
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] is the only other one that I can see working - I know two female Elliotts (and they don’t go by more feminine nicknames).
You could also (probably) get away with [name_u]Everett[/name_u].

Any of these would work for girls!! I have a good friend named [name_u]Connor[/name_u] who is a woman, and I know girls named [name_m]Travis[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], [name_u]Andy[/name_u], and [name_u]Kendall[/name_u]. Many popular girls names started out as “boy names.”

Of your list, my personal favorite for a girl is [name_u]Julian[/name_u]. This has always sounded feminine to me anyway.

Love [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] and [name_u]Everett[/name_u]!!

Barrett -[name_f]Betty[/name_f]
[name_u]Dylan[/name_u] - [name_f]Dilly[/name_f]
[name_u]Remington[/name_u]-[name_u]Remy[/name_u]

Same here, with the exception of [name_u]Elliot[/name_u]. I don’t like it on a girl, but it definitely would work.

I actually could see [name_u]Julian[/name_u] on a girl. It seems so overtly feminine on a boy to me.

Elliott is the only one I can see - but I prefer the more feminine spelling [name_u]Eliot[/name_u]. It just seems to click as a girl name for me when I see it with that spelling. It’s also the only one of those names I’ve actually seen on a girl, and it seems to have the most nickname options.

Almost all of these are firmly boys names for me. The only ones that could maybe work for a girl are [name_u]Bentley[/name_u] (which i dont care for either way), [name_u]Everett[/name_u] (though this might be kind of weird on a girl), and [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] (which I much prefer on a boy and personally would never use for a girl).
[name_u]Jules[/name_u] is already pushing it a bit for me, so it doesnt make [name_u]Julian[/name_u] any more usable on a girl. I would prefer [name_u]Julianne[/name_u], although [name_u]Julian[/name_u] on a girl isn’t terrible.
[name_u]Maverick[/name_u] I dont really like on either, but because of the “[name_m]Rick[/name_m]” sound at the end, which reminds me of [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] or [name_m]Richard[/name_m], its a boy’s name.
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m], [name_m]Oliver[/name_m], Alistar, [name_u]Emmett[/name_u], and [name_m]Seamus[/name_m] are just boys names. No exceptions.

These are all 100% masculine for me with the exception of [name_u]Julian[/name_u]. I know a girl named [name_u]Julian[/name_u] nn [name_u]Jules[/name_u]. I really just wouldn’t use any of these for girls, even with girly nicknames. A lot of the nicknames you listed are lovely names on their own, so I’d just go with those.

Thank you all for you honest opinion
