ArchivesRe: People were actually naming their boys Ines?!
in reply to a message by MasterCiaraXo
The SSA used to list feminine names as masculine (Mary, Jane, Patricia...) and masculine names as feminine (John, Thomas, Kevin...) in the corresponding popularity charts.
Of course, those are mistakes.
There is also a post about Ines (in this case Inés) being whether or not a unisex name in Latin America. However, I don't think it's a unisex name since it only has a famous male bearer, so it's an exception.

In short, I think it's just another SSA mistake.
Hope I made things clear. :P
