It might just be that very soft and frilly names on boys just don't jive with our ingrained definitions. Not right, but we are past the age of priming our brains to think otherwise.

---

I guess I think about names like Evangeline and Anastasia and go... no, not on a boy. But I can't really think of a boy name that is soooo masculine I couldn't argue for a girl.

---

It also might stem from that fact that I love female variations of clasic guy names (Thomasina, Paulina, Claudette, Josepha, Johna, Stephanie, etc), so I already associate the sounds with girls.

---

Though, I am not actually in to the trend of boys' names on girls. Would never do it myself, and find some comical.

---

The world is full of double standards. I won't say they are right, but I can't pretend they didn't shape my preferences.
