I'm surprised no one has entered this yet (so I will) - Posh & Becks named their third son Cruz.

This is my favourite boys name. It's very cool.

This can also be a boy's name.

I like Cruz, and despite the fact that (yes, I agree) it is terribly trendy, I love the spelling Kruiz. I like Cruz as a GIRL name by the way.

I love the name Cruz, but I like the spelling Kruiz for a girl.

This is okay. I can't believe no one mentioned Penelope Cruz, a famous Spanish actress.

This is really a girl's name? I always thought it was a boy's name because the only person I knew with this name was male. It sounds more masculine to me.

A variant of Cruz is Cruzito.

This is traditionally a girls' name. No questions. The only reason it became popular is because people have no taste.

In much of South America this name would be pronounced CROOSS.

Cruz is apparently a last name, too, as one of my best friends has the surname of Cruz. She pronounces it like the word "cruise".

While I know Cruz can be a boys' name and don't mind it as such, I still think of it as a feminine name. It's not one of my favorites, though, since it makes me think of Tom Cruise.
