[Opinions] Emery on a boy?
Do you think that Emery still works on a boy, or do you think it's completely gone to the girls? Emery has a pretty considerable history of use on boys, but in the past year it was ranked #783 for a boy and #312 for a girl. Still, it hasn't fallen completely out of the top 1000 for boys, and I certainly don't think a boys' name being used on girls means that it can't be used on boys anymore. I love the sounds in Emery, I love the meaning of it. I love that it's patriotic in a really nerdy way (Emery is the Norman form of Emmerich, Amerigo is an old Italian form of Emmerich, America comes from Amerigo). I think it works well as a less-common alternative to Henry.So, back to my original question, do you think that non-name nerds would recognize Emery as a boys' name, or do you think that most people would see it as a girls' name? What do you think of Emery is general?
