I think Nico is a cute and sweet name for a little boy, but that being said... I feel it's a bit simple. I prefer Neeko for a more feminine name that could be for either gender in my opinion. I am sure you're child (or original character) would love their name if you name them Nico!

I think it's best as a girl's name. Works good as a male name as well, but I think it sounds wonderful as a nickname for a girl especially. Really nice name either way!

Singer/model/actress Nico was just NICO. Her birth name was Christa Paeffgen (I don't know how to do Umlauts, so I use the internal e). Once you tack a last name onto it, Nico does seem to become more masculine.
Although Nico was a strikingly beautiful woman in her youth (before drugs and hard living took their toll), her deep Dietrich-like singing voice, her decidedly unfrilly manner of dress, gesture and speech made for a somewhat androgynous impression. Which, I think, she enjoyed.
She was "named after" a man, the former lover of one of her early photographers. However, it's been suggested that her name echoes more feminine sounding names like Coco (as in Chanel) and that was part of the appeal.
Contemporary singer Neko Case uses a variant (and therefore perhaps more feminine?) spelling.

It seems strange to me that Nico would be considered a girls' name, let alone predominantly feminine. It ends with an 'O' which is traditionally masculine. A beautiful name for a boy. A somewhat silly name for a girl.
