Help with boys names
I love the name Ashley for boys. It feels so suave and classical and yet, because it is unisex, modern and fresh on a boy too.Are there any other names that you can suggest along similar lines that could be considered both classical and yet unisex, for boys?

Originally, Ashley was male, but any more it has been thoroughly taken over by the girls like Courtney, Ariel, Alexis, Leslie, Madison, Whitney and Noel. From 1985-1990 and from 1993-1995, Ashley was the second most popular name for girls and, in 1991 and 1992 it was the most popular name for girls. Some names that are classically masculine but have become more unisex:
Robin
Francis
Morgan
Dallas
Dana
Aubrey
Avery
Edan
Hayden/ Haydn
Ira
Kelly
Kendall
Kerry
Cassidy
Quinn
Riley
Reagan
Ryan
Sydney
Blair
Jesse

All I can think of that hasn't already been suggested is Alexis. That is technically unisex, although I really think it belongs on boys.

I like Ashley on boys too (:Maybe...Ariel (ah-ree-el, not air-ee-el)
Loren
Skye (classical because of the Isle of Skye) (and weirdly it says its only feminine here but I know two guys named Skye.)
Shiloh
Avery
Briar (not really classic though)
Addison
Eden
Cameron (though honestly I think this should be boys ONLY)
Casey
Ainsley (maybe too popular for girls now though?)
Aubrey
Claude
Devon
Francis
Jordan
Logan (another one I think shouldn't be for girls, but what can you do?)
Morgan
Quinn
Reilly
Robin
Rowan
Sasha (though it's technically a nickname)
