[Opinions] Re: Kansas!
in reply to a message by lakin5
I now have "Carry On Wayward Son" in my head, so Kansas feels more masculine than feminine to me, but I guess it could work for either. I don't really like it, but if there are kids named Alabama, Tennessee, and Texas out there, there can be kids named Kansas too.
I think it would occasionally be mistaken for Candace, particularly on the phone, but that's not a big deal, imo. A bigger problem, for me, is the "we're not in Kansas anymore" jokes. I imagine teenaged boys and ex-boyfriends of all ages could have some meanspirited "fun" with that one, and it would get old fast.

I thought Kansas would be more masculine because of names like Tennessee being masculine... But I guess that it all depends on your frame of reference.
I say: sure, may as well use it as many other states are names now too.
