Is Micah a girl name????

Imo, NO because I've always held the opinion that classic biblical names should remain the gender that they've had for litterally thousands of years. But I've heard this name on some girls recently and I'm kinda crushed because we really like it for our boy. I'm not into unisex names at all.

What do you think? Girly/no/kinda-but so what?

Not at all!!

No way! I've heard one girl with the name, but that doesn't make it unisex at all; it's a boys name that some idiot parents have given to girl.

I see it both ways.  I liked it on the show Warehouse 13 that the woman's name was Micah.  Somehow it just fit.  But, all other Micah's I have met were boys.

No. Definitely think its a boys name and should be left at that.  It's a great boys name too!

NO.

What idiot told you it was?

No. Every Micah I've ever met was/is a boy.

It's happened after I told people that our boy name was Micah (mistake btw) I got a, "oh my niece is Micah," and I saw someone's siggy on here that announced their daughter "Mikah" urrgggg.

Nope!  In my mind, Micah is all boy.

I know 2 Micah's and they are both boys...I dont think it fits for a girl...it's almost like trying to use Jacob for a girl...it just doesnt work.

No, it's definitely a boy name!

Micah is my nephew's mn. It's an awesome name and I love it, but only for a boy.

I know several Micahs, and they're all boys.

I know one Myka, and she's a girl. The name suits her, but when I hear Micah, I think boy.

To me, it's actually a girl's name because my best friend from college is Micah, mn Ruth. It's very pretty and so is she.

Micah on a boy sounds weird to me.

Names that end in the "uh" sound always feel more feminine to me.

I agree, the only Micah I have ever known was a girl, I think it sounds pretty. Even if it is technically a boys name, I have seen far worse boy names going as girls.

Yes, it is unisex.  When I was teaching, I came across a handful of girl Micahs...never boys.

I grew up with a girl Micah. I think it is a boy name though and would never use it on a girl. At the same time, it does have a kind of feminine sound which would probably keep me from using it on a boy. BUT I actually love the name
