Reply to: Sociology! by Anneza
What if they just like the sound of the name. My brothers name is Morgan which is traditionly a female name but he isn't bothered by the fact that in his class is a girl named Morgan, nor is she worried about his name. The point is not that women want to be men, we just want to name our children something that sounds good. How about Shannon, I always thought of that as a girls name and then met two boys name that. It didn't bother them that they have been "cross-gendered". Once again I must stress that naming children has nothing to do with male-female sociology but choosing a name that you like.
