Is [name]Hadley[/name] for a boy or a girl?

Your boy choices are so interesting that if I were to see the sibset on paper, I would think [name]Hadley[/name] is a boy. [name]Hadley[/name] would work so well as a boy in all of your choices. I don’t see any working with [name]Hadley[/name] for a girl, but [name]Silas[/name] seems the most believable (since it is the most common of your choices right now).

This is exactly why I asked! I consider [name]Hadley[/name] to be trendy and [name]Kieran[/name] is the most similar to that so that’s what I voted for.

I wanted to vote, but I have a similar feeling to those above. While I typically think of [name]Hadley[/name] as a girl’s name (because the only [name]Hadley[/name] I know is a girl), it was still very difficult to think of it as clearly feminine alongside the great, but similarly styled boys names. I love [name]Ciaran[/name]/[name]Kieran[/name] and [name]Silas[/name], but if I saw [name]Kieran[/name] and [name]Hadley[/name] or [name]Silas[/name] and [name]Hadley[/name], I wouldn’t automatically assume [name]Hadley[/name] was a girl, which is what I suppose you would want!

I like [name]Silas[/name] and [name]Kieran[/name], and don’t really care for the other two at all - however, I voted for [name]Silas[/name] over [name]Kieran[/name] because to me, [name]Silas[/name] is clearly masculine while [name]Kieran[/name] is trending toward unisex, and with a girl [name]Hadley[/name] I can see confusion.

Well I disagree that [name]Kieran[/name] is unisex. [name]Kiera[/name] is the feminine form of [name]Kieran[/name], and if people are naming their girls [name]Kieran[/name] than they are clearly ignorant. And we chose [name]Hadley[/name] because it is a surname of the family, not because it’s trendy.

I don’t really consider [name]Hadley[/name] to be overly trendy. It is an old name and not overly popular, although it has risen on the charts recently. The only [name]Hadley[/name] I ever met was an kind and sweet elderly lady, so it seems a little more feminine to me. I would assume a [name]Hadley[/name] is a girl. I like [name]Hadley[/name] actually. I voted for [name]Kieran[/name], which is not unisex and is quite masculine. [name]Silas[/name] would have been my second pick.
