Devin for a girl

soon-to-beamrs

I like this name but I actually prefer it for a girl, seems feminine to me.  I don't like the Devyn or Devin spellings though.  I recently saw it spelled Devon.  Is this the girl spelling?  Do you like this name for a girl?

I only know two of them (Devon and Devyn), so I think girl. I like it and prefer Devon.

I know one girl named Devon, and one guy named Devin. It's very unisex to me, but I do think the 'o' spelling is more feminine. Don't spell it Devyn.

I know a girl named Devon (spelled with an 'o') but have never been a fan. It doesn't sound feminine to me at all.

I actually know a woman named Devin, spelled with an i.  I think it's cute.  I guess I never knew a boy named Devin, so I didn't even realize that it was a "boy" name.

I worked with a female Devan (either a or o, can't remember). She was the ultimate hard worker and knew her sh*t. The name suited her well, and I like it.

From my experience, it's Devon for a girl and Devin for a boy.

My BFF's name is Devon and she loves her name. She is spunky and smart and it fits her perfectly.

All boy!

I think boy.

Ugh. Devin/Devon is a boys name, no matter how you spell it.

But please, if you use it anyway, don't shove a Y in there.

Devin is a boy name to me.

I like it for a girl more than I like it for a boy. Go for it. I prefer it spelt Devin but have seen it Devon also.

Girl or Boy, all I see is Devil.

IMO Devin/Devon/Devyn is trailer park.  Sorry.  I don't like it for either a boy of girl, but I've heard it on both.

 Devon is English.  The meaning is from the tribe of Dumnonii.  It is an English County name.

My flower girl was named Devon.  She was a cutie.

Devin is often used on a girl, but I still see it as a boys name mostly. I can see it on a girl no problem though.

My 26-year-old male cousin is named Devon, so I have a hard time seeing this as a girl's name. That may just be me though. I've never met a female Devon/Devin.

I have a friend named Devon, and she's the only person I know with the name. So it's always been a female name to me, though not particularly feminine. If you were going to use it, I prefer Devon to Devin, because like a PP said, with the "i" I just see "Devil."
