[Opinions] Cinnamon on a boy?
Hi !!!
In Italian the word for cinnamon is "cannella" which is definetly feminine.
But "cinnamon" sounds masculine to me.
WDYT?
Would you use it on a baby (boy or girl)?

Cannella actually sounds like a name. Do you know if it's ever used as a name in Italy?
I actually like the name Cinnamon (for a gir), despite the fact that it's considered tacky. But I don't think it fits a boy. Well, it doesn't exactly fit a girl either. It's better for a pet.

I wouldn't use it on either. Maybe as a middle name, if I had some reason to.
I would expect a person named Cinnamon to be female, but it would seem about the same on a male: acceptable and not totally unappealing, but shallow. It's kind of like purple hair. Catching attention, but having no particular significance.

No, I wouldn't use it on a baby. I like the sound of the word, but as a name, it seems silly.
I've seen Cinnamon used as a surname, so logically it should be perfect for a boy.
It was in a list of candidates who'd passed their final school-leaving exam, so all I know is the full name, which I found very memorable: Grant David Cinnamon! It sounds like half a sentence: "Grant David cinnamon but deny him the ginger and nutmeg".
I wouldn't use it on a human, but it could work well on a cat or dog with fur of the right pinkish-brown colour.

I can onpy see Cinnamon on a cat, or a stripper
I don't like it. In the US, Cinnamon is exclusively feminine and is considered a stripper name.
If you like the sound of Cinnamon, how about Cimarron? I think it's from the Spanish cimarrón, meaning "wild, untamed." Though there's no record of it being used as a name, it has been used to describe a Panamanian tribe (the Cimarron people), wild horses (caballos cimarrones), and various landmarks in the American West, including a mountain range. It is generally synonymous with the Wild West, and has been used in the titles of many western movies.

No. I would use it on a pet, but not a human. Or on a pudding =)
No, it is an entirely feminine, bordering on cartoonishly sexy, name.
