[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Gah! This is so frustrating! I mean, do they expect women named Leslie, Stacey, Carol and the like to change their names because they are actually men’s names??? [/quote] That’s the ironic part about this happening in Texas. There are a ton of unusual nicknames that I don’t come across elsewhere, maybe because a tradition of family names is a bit more prevalent than elsewhere, so you have 4 living Roberts and 3 Mary Margarets in a family at a time. And while boy names being repurposed for girls is a growing trend everywhere for babies nowadays, I’ve never met so many adult women with male/unisex names as in Texas. Johnnie, Stevie, Dylan, Tate, Jerry, etc. but my reaction to that is “oh, guess I need to readjust my expectations/assumptions about names” and not “these women should have different names”[/quote]
