[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u], particularly nn [name_m]Mac[/name_m]! It’s got masculine history, but it’s so much more commonly used as a girls name nowadays. I adore it for a boy!

Same! I love it for a boy

I think many of the [name_f]Rose[/name_f] names have potential for boys! [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f], [name_m]Rosebanks[/name_m], even just [name_f]Rose[/name_f] seem like they could work on a boy. It’s a daring decision but I think it would be surprisingly masculine!

I also love seeing [name_u]Harper[/name_u] and [name_u]Sailor[/name_u] used for boys!

[name_f]Avis[/name_f] and [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] for me! I love those on boys more than on girls, but I’m usually alone in that opinion xD

I prefer [name_u]Fern[/name_u], [name_u]Indie[/name_u] and [name_u]Sailor[/name_u] on boys!

@kiomkio I think [name_f]Rose[/name_f] sounds a lot nicer than [name_u]Rhodes[/name_u], could [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f] be because it has a similar ending to [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] potentially? [name_m]Rosebanks[/name_m] is so handsome though!

[name_f]Joy[/name_f] and [name_u]June[/name_u] (as middle names)
[name_f]Brenn[/name_f], short for [name_u]Brennan[/name_u] or even standalone

I have a soft spot for [name_f]Elly[/name_f] on a boy (as a nickname for [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] or Elias).

Also [name_u]Cass[/name_u], [name_u]Eden[/name_u], [name_u]Aubrey[/name_u], and [name_u]Sage[/name_u].

Overall, I’m highly in favor of names that are perceived as more feminine being used on boys and vice versa. Names should be for everyone.

[name_u]Cassidy[/name_u], [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] and [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] are a few popularly feminine names that I prefer for a boy (and actually dislike on girls).

I really love [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] on a boy, especially as a middle.
