Gendering = bad.
I assume that you're looking for fluffy and weak for it to be suitable for a girl.===

WTF?ADT, Mar was referring to the fact that Hebrew names ending in 'ah' or 'eh' are more often male than female. The name *does* look similar to many male Hebrew names and there's nothing at all weird about saying so.It has *nothing* to do with gender, stereotyping or any of your usual soapbox subjects. If you insist on subjecting us to your rants, at least do it legitimately instead of pouncing on anyone who dares say that fobidden word, "male".

ADT1. I never heard a fluffy names, because fluffy refers to hair or fur and name is not equipped with that :P2. If you click my profile and see my fav names, you'll see I like loads of non-(what I think you might mean with)"Fluffy and weak" names.3. Please go ahead and cheer when parents go and name their daugther Rocky if you like, but don't bother me again with your overly-feministic preaching.Thank you for reading.

Again, I'm very much against gender stereotypes. Because what exactly is that what makes a name "masculine" or "feminine" sounding if it's not stereotypes.===

What about history and origin?What makes a name male or female is it is male/female historically imo.I guess Lemmih would be unisex, since it has no history/tradition."But it’s all right now.
