What is your impression of these names?
So my friend and I were talking about "when we get married and have kids" which naturally lead into the discussion of baby names. And we more or less got in a bit of an argument over which names are girly and which are tomboyish. So, can you help us settle the score? Please rate the names and nicknames (cause we both agreed that while one name can be girly a nickname can be tomboyish and vice versa). Sorry this is a bit long. Also, feel free to add any other interjections about the names, I love finding out how other people view names.

Just for clarification, the proper name is the first one in a set and the rest are possible nicknames. Minus the few we agreed on.

It depends on the person, not the name. And you have a ton of names on here, break it down into smaller questions and you might get more answers. It’s a long list to comprehend all at once.

You all have really been busy thinking up names!! I like all the variations you have. My daughter is named Malinda We tried nicknames, but none of them ever took. She’s Malinda. Could have been Mindy, Mandy, Mallie, Linda, Lin, Andi, Lindy, Mae, Linda,etc. I really like all the choices you have.
