Reply to: Question about usage of Leith by chazda
Leith is very rare as a given name. All the examples I have personally run across have been males, but almost all surnames which have become given names have occasionally been bestowed on girls, especially in the Southern states of the USA. I went to high school in Virginia with girls named Winston, Russell, and Jeffree. So it wouldn't particularly surprise me to run across a Southern woman named Leith.
