[name_u]Poe[/name_u] is all boy to me. But I think [name_f]Poesy[/name_f] is adorable for a girl. :smiley:

3

[name_m]Just[/name_m] [name_u]Poe[/name_u] is more masculine to me. [name_f]Posy[/name_f] is lovely for a girl, and I don’t think it needs nickname. [name_u]Poet[/name_u] is also more masculine to me, and with that I like the nickname [name_u]Poe[/name_u].

I think [name_u]Poe[/name_u] has masculine associations- [name_m]Edgar[/name_m] [name_m]Allen[/name_m] [name_u]Poe[/name_u], [name_u]Poe[/name_u] from Starwars, but i think it would make a cute nn for a girl too

5

[name_u]Poe[/name_u] from [name_f]Star[/name_f] Wars was one of my favorite characters so I see it as more masculine. I could probably get behind it as a nickname for a girl if I met one.

6

[name_u]Poe[/name_u] sounds completely masculine to me.

7

[name_u]Poe[/name_u] definitely feels more masculine to me but I do think it’s a cute nickname for a more feminine name like [name_f]Poesy[/name_f] or even [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] or [name_f]Persephone[/name_f].

8

[name_f]IMO[/name_f] it works for both!

9

It’s definitely boy for me because of the new [name_f]Star[/name_f] Wars movies.

Could see it as a nn for a girl though.

I’m not a fan of [name_u]Poe[/name_u], but I could see it in the middle spot for a boy.

It is quite sweet as a nickname for [name_u]Poet[/name_u] or [name_f]Posey[/name_f], so I voted for this option in the poll :slight_smile:

I like [name_u]Poe[/name_u] for either. Maybe on a boy a bit better. I have always liked [name_u]Poe[/name_u] since am a big fan of [name_m]Edgar[/name_m] [name_m]Allen[/name_m] [name_u]Poe[/name_u]. Most people equate [name_u]Poe[/name_u] to his poem “The [name_u]Raven[/name_u]” , thus, the naming of things that are black. My black Rooster’s name is [name_u]Poe[/name_u]., 2 black Hens named: [name_u]Raven[/name_u], & [name_m]Crow[/name_m]. My sister’s black tom.cat is named [name_u]Poe[/name_u]. I know if a male black horse years back named [name_u]Poe[/name_u].

I think it works for both. [name_u]Poe[/name_u] for a boy after [name_m]Edgar[/name_m] [name_m]Allen[/name_m], or [name_u]Poe[/name_u] for a girl along the same lines as [name_u]Rue[/name_u] and [name_u]Bo[/name_u], or short for [name_u]Poet[/name_u] (a GP of mine!)

14

I personally like [name_u]Poe[/name_u] or [name_u]Poet[/name_u] for a boy, and [name_f]Posy[/name_f] or [name_f]Poem[/name_f] fir a girl.
