[Opinions] Re: Ashley (masculine)
in reply to a message by Ani
When I was a kid we had neighbours for a while who had three cute little boys: Dorian, Ashley and Mark. I always felt mildly sorry for Mark - such an ordinary name, compared to his brothers. So it's always seemed like a male name, and since I've never met a female Ashley, it still does. I don't like it enough to ever consider using it IRL, but it's definitely OK.
