Actually the spelling Skyler is the female version and Skylar is the male and it gets used wrong all the time- Just so there is an awareness, because I researched it back and forward before I used it for my daughter because I loved the meaning.
The name Skylar was given to 317 boys born in the US in 2016.
It makes me mad that people are giving this name certain genders. "I like it more on a guy!"
"No, a girl!"I'm trans -- agender. Can't it be good on both? Neither? That's why Skylar is my preferred name.
Currently, the variation Skyla is more popular for girls in England and Wales than Skylar. This is possibly because when spoken with a British accent, Skylar and Skyla are impossible to tell apart. The popularity of the names Skye and Isla likely contributed to its usage.
I know two Skylars, a girl and a boy! I really like this name on both of them though I prefer it on a girl.
Skylar for a girl appeared on the top 1000 list in the 1990's with its most popular year being 2005 where it ranked 154, Skylar for a boy appeared on the top 1000 list in the 1980's with its most popular year being the 1990's where it ranked 407. For the year 2005 it ranked 462.
This name was originally entirely masculine in usage and has "gone to the girls" for the most part in the U.S. I vastly prefer it on boys spelled the traditional way, Schuyler. Just because a name is used on girls doesn't make it a feminine name. ;)
