[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate giving little girls boys names. It's like saying there's something wrong with the girls names already there. People never name their boys girls names either, so it's pretty sexist. [/quote]

+1 Giving a girl a boy's name seems to imply that being a girl isn't good enough.  But you can name a little girl Elliott or Stan or Harry and she will still be a little girl at the end of the day.  Why not embrace the fact that she's a little girl and give her a feminine name?

Being a girl is awesome.  Women are strong.  Our mothers, grandmothers and great grandmas were some mighty amazing women and they didn't need to be named Harold to be amazing.[/quote]

So women are strong and amazing, but they’re not allowed to name their daughters something unfeminine? Mmkay.[/quote]

Oh, please.  You know what PP meant.  This idea that men's names are inherently stronger is misogynist garbage.  I, too, am fed up with parents giving their girls traditionally male names because they want something "strong-sounding."  [/quote]
