Another if you had to...

Inspired by the If you had to topic below.

If you had to give a boy a first name from the top 100 US girl's names, what would you pick (middle name is anything you want)? Myself, I think I'd go for Morgan Philip or Sydney Lucas.

If I was feeling daring, though, I'd go for Brooklyn Gerard. Brooklyn has been one of my GPs for a boy for awhile now.

This was much easier...!

There are so many unisex names in the girls top 100, I had a field day!

My top pick would be Sydney Herbert.

But I also like Brooklyn Henry. And maybe even Riley, Mackenzie and Ashley.

Avery James

I would much rather use Avery as a boy's name than a girl's anyway.

Harper Nathaniel
Skylar James

These are still unisex.

Playing it safe:
Riley Alexander

Not so safe:
Paisley Theodore, Harper Jonathan or Brooklyn Alexander

Addison Gabriel
London Ephraim

I know they're both unisex, so maybe that's cheating.

Avery or Riley

Riley Alexander
Avery Leander

- Ismene (Madyson)

10/4/2014, 8:19 PM

Addison Keir
Morgan Patrick
Sydney Gabriel
London Leander
Lauren Gerard

But to really challenge myself I'd pick..

Claire Dominic
Aria Woodrow

Piper Elric. He can be a boy in a medieval fantasy novel.

There are so many unisex names used for girls that this was too easy. I'd be willing to use for a son:

Riley
Alexis
Mackenzie
Piper
Morgan

But if I'm not cheating and using unisex names then:

Audrey Nathaniel
Faith Emanuel

Riley Oliver or Taylor Jonathan.

Also, I knew a little boy named Brooklyn. I know you're not planning on using it IRL but I felt sorry for him knowing that every other Brooklyn he will probably ever meet will be a girl and that, chances are, he'll be teased. I hope things have turned out okay for him though, he'd be 8 or 9 now...

Kennedy. It sounds more masculine than feminine to me anyway. I like Kenneth, and there's some similarity. I'd call him Ken.

I love Mackenzie, Avery, and Morgan on boys.

Today I've pick Avery Thomas or Avery Callahan.

- Pink Princess

Morgan Ezra

Ashley David

Not really a big stretch, I love Ash for a boy (though I probably would go the Asher route, in reality).

- Jessamine (JesikaJayne)

10/4/2014, 4:52 PM

Addison Alexander.

- Rachel Shaina (Evil)

My favorite boy's name is actually in the girls top 100, so...

Ashley Jacob Evander

I'd also consider Morgan, Skylar, or Peyton. And I mean, for real, not "If I had to".

Avery Benjamin

Or, if I force myself not to use a unisex name, I'd go with Scarlett Nathaniel. I almost think it could work.

- SJayne

Ashley Theodore. I really like Ash on a boy.

Not feeling particularly name creative right now, but in browsing the list I'd go with Morgan, London, or Mackenzie "Mack". I know the last one is a bit of a cheat, but it's actually been one of my GPs for a while now.
