[Opinions] Sojourn
I heard a toddler being called Sojourn today. I don't know if it was short for Sojourner or not and also not sure of gender.So, what do you think of Sojourn? Would you prefer Sojourner, or not? Do either of them seem more masculine/feminine to you, or are they unisex?

I think it's too much of a word name, and I shudder to think how it might be mispronounced - SO-joorn? SOO-jorn? I do prefer Soujourner, and both names sound feminine to me.

I love both Sojourn and Sojourner. Sojourn would be easier for people (an myself) to say but... Sojourner is more of a direct honoring of Sojourner Truth who was a badass and the main reason I like the names.Both are very unisex imo.That's really cool you heard it "in the wild".
