Boy Names

So we [name]LOVE[/name] the name [name]Harley[/name] for our baby boy that is due in 4 weeks. Lately I have been reading on blogs and baby name sites that [name]Harley[/name] has become popular as a girl name as well spelling it [name]Harlee[/name] or [name]Harleigh[/name]. Now I am having second thoughts of using it for our little boy for fear he may get teased if he has a “girl name”. what do you think? [name]Do[/name] you know any boys with the name [name]Harley[/name]? or Any girls with the name [name]Harlee[/name]/[name]Harleigh[/name]? Any advice on this name???

[name]Harley[/name] is our favorite right now but here are the others on our list:

[name]Cash[/name]
[name]Gage[/name]
[name]Sawyer[/name]
[name]Hank[/name]

Help… Advice… Suggestions…

[name]Harley[/name] is cute for a boy! I personally can’t even imagine it on a girl because of the motorcycles, but I’ve heard it is growing in popularity. I haven’t met one personally but I know of a family that has a little [name]Harlie[/name] [name]Katerina[/name] (I think that’s her MN, anyway). Maybe something like [name]Hurley[/name] or [name]Huxley[/name] would be seen as more masculine, but still the same vibe?

I love [name]Sawyer[/name] from the rest of your list, though!

Good luck!

[name]Harley[/name] is all boy to me, even though I do know one little girl named Harlei.

It’s not considered a very nice name in the UK, a little downmarket if I’m honest but I think most here would assume boys name definitely.

I love [name]Gage[/name] and [name]Sawyer[/name] from your list!!

Actually, for me, [name]Harley[/name] is a girls name. I’ve known several [name]Harley[/name]'s and they were all girls and I have a little cousin named [name]Harley[/name] whose a girl. She so sweet with curly blond hair and big blue eyes.

I think it could work fine on a boy though. I think [name]Harry[/name] could work as a nickname too, which might make it sound more boyish.

You say [name]Harley[/name], I think [name]Harley[/name] [name]Davidson[/name]. I think [name]Harley[/name] is very unattractive on a girl and alright on a boy.

I don’t mind [name]Harley[/name] on a boy. I myself like it for a girl.

[name]Harley[/name] is the name of one of my great uncles. I’m so used to thinking of it in that light that I can’t imagine a girl with the name.

From the rest of your list, I like [name]Sawyer[/name], and I like [name]Cash[/name] as a mn (reminds me of [name]Johnny[/name] [name]Cash[/name]).

I have known three girls named [name]Harley[/name]. I have never known a boy named [name]Harley[/name].

I think [name]Harley[/name] [name]Quinn[/name], the Batman villainess. I think one was even named after her. It’s all girl to me.

I know the motorcycle thing but it sounds more “tomboy” than “boy” to me, if that makes sense.

I dont know any Harleys but it sounds like a boys name to me. If you really like it, I would encourage you to use it. I get so frustrated with masculine names, or even traditional names, being taken for girls.
