Baby Names

Has anyone heard of this as a unisex name?

I really like the name sawyer and wondered what people thought of it as a boy or girl name?

  • I love the name Sawyer!  I know people use the name on boys and girls, but it's on my list for a boy.  I personally like unisex names/ "boy" names on girls and surnames as first names.  I am one of the few people on this board that do though.

    This, but I have heard MORE on girls lately. :(
  • My husband isn't sold on it for a girl either but if it was a commonly used for both I was going to stop looking for girl names ;
  • I only know boys with the name. Never heard it on a girl before.

  • I can't believe anyone would name a girl "Sawyer".  It's NOT unisex.  It's a boy's name that stupid parents use for poor little girls.

  • It's a boys name...the little boy I know with is always correct people on the pronunciation of his name as (Saw-your) instead of (Soy-er), so that has turned me off on the name completely. It's not a girls name.

  • One of my husband's employees named her daughter Sawyer. I also have a friend with a son named Sawyer. I don't think its terrible on a girl, but I prefer it on a boy.

  • I think of it as a dog's name first.

    On a human, I would think boy.

  • I have a girlfriend who is pregnant right now with a girl and her name will be Sawyer. We thought about using it for our boy name but changed our minds. I really like the name... not sure for a girl though.
