Shiloh for a boy?

PrincessLinLin

So the baby names website says it is a boy name but every time I've ever seen someone with the name it's a girl. Would this be a poor choice of a name for my son?

I think it sounds like a name for a dog. Not being snarky, just my honest opinion.

I know a boy name Shiloh. He is about 16. It fits him.

Shiloh Jolie-Pitt ruined this name for all boys. I'm sorry!

Don't feel bad apparently Mason, Logan and Tucker are girls names now too.

Darn, I liked the name for its meaning "peaceful and tranquil"

I don't like it for either. Unfortunately, AJ ruined it for me too. Now I think little girl with masculine tendencies.

imo it is a poor choice for any baby.

Noooo... I don't think it's remotely masculine. I also know 3 little girls under the age two with this name (don't get the appeal of it myself)!

I think it sounds feminine to me.

Meh - sounds like a horse's name..like, "Theres Shiloh grazing in the field"

I think Shiloh Jolie-Pitt ruined it for a boy's name. However, it is looking as though she may become a lesbian so shes def not a girly-girl

Way too feminine, in my opinion.

I don't even know where to start with this.

I know a 6 year old boy Shiloh, it fits him, but I think it is feminine.

I don't like it for either but especially not for a boy.

To me, Shiloh is a gender neutral name. I named DD #2 Shiloh.

I know a relatively creepy old man named Shiloh, and he's the only one I know. I think maybe the creepy factor was upped by his name, which seems very granola and feminine for a guy's name, even though I know its a male name.

I think of it as a boy name.  I honestly thought the Pitt kid was a boy.  (I don't follow the gossip so I haven't seen pictures, just heard the name).  I think it is ok.

I think of it as a boys name b/c I grew up with a male Shiloh - he is 30 now and the only Shiloh I've ever met.

This is funny because the two Shiloh's I've known (one spelled it Shilo), were both very much tomboy's, so that's how I see the name.  I've never met a boy Shiloh.
