[quote=SadSongs] I've never met a boy named Jacklyn.... I introduce myself as such as Jackie is for both genders, and to clear up any confusion. [/quote] Eh, I've seen more than one occasion where a girl got a boy's name, or vice versa. The fact that I work at a bookstore, and per extension see/read tons of different names -- both realistic and less so -- helps a lot in this aspect though. Either way, with all the silly names some parents give their children these days -- no harm intended to anyone who feels he/she has a silly name -- you're bound to have at least one person with a name that seems more fitting for the opposite gender.
