Reply to:	Ashley for a boy by Caroline

I would strongly advise your friend against naming her son "Ashley". Perhaps she may consider the more masculine form of "Ashton"?

Sorry, Ashley may have been perceived as a masculine name in years gone by, but nowadays any boy named "Ashley" is going to be perceived as being a sissy-boy.

- The only "Ashley" I know is a boy who spells his name Ashleigh. I think Ashley is a good name for a boy or girl but it is more feminine nowadays - especially in America. I'd go for a really masculine middle name.. Tyson, anyone? (n/t) - Charlotte May 5 2001, 7:05:21 AM
