Girls named Dylan

2-Step

I was looking on the "Considering this name?" section of the site that pper mentioned below where people can post what type of bullying they got for their name. I ran across this:

If you plan to name your baby girl dylan, DON'T!!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON'T DO IT!!!! Save her the agonising pain of having her P.E. teacher put a 'he' insted of a she on her report card and just call her 'Jessica' or 'Valerie' or somethign - anything- else

Dylan - 17 years old

There are also a ton of posts on there from girl Dylans who say they hate their name because it is a boys name. So please take her advice. My unborn son will also thank you for not feminising his name

I happen to like boy names for girls. Just my opinion

I know, actually I am not totally against them either. I just constantly see discussion about this name becoming a girls name and people are all worried about it on here and I thought this was kind of funny since we picked that name for our boy.

This and I hate Dylan for a girl.

I agree. SO wants to use Dylan for a future son. I thought I was in agreement with him, but I do not want a DS to have a name that's also being used for girls.

Well it is currently 31 on the boys list and something like 571 on the girls list and dropping the past few years, so I don't think we have to worry too much about it just yet. I'd be more worried if it were Addison, Hayden, Quinn or Riley.

Sounds very 90210... but I like Zack (Saved by the Bell) so who am I to judge?!!! Ha!

I hate it as much as I hate any other obviously boy name on a girl.

I don't like Dylan for a girl. 

I don't like boy names for girl names, that is just me.

I know a little girl who's Dylan. I think it's really dumb. Save it for the boys.

Think of your argument.  How many people populate the US?  What are the chances for ever bumping into another Dylan that is a female?  #571 on the girls list? I don't think it will be in the Top 10 anytime soon.  Give it a rest already.

I know it won't be, I wasn't arguing that it would, I posted that because I've seen a lot of people who are worried about it on this board lately. I obviously chose it for my boy because I don't really care. I'm the one that posted that I am not worried about it because it is #571. I just thought that was a funny comment from a girl named Dylan, for those ladies who are worried about it becoming a girls name.
