Trying to make Julien (which is THINK is more common for boys) sound more feminine...

Julienne? Julianne? IDK!!!!

I would say Julian would be for a boy, which I love by the way!
Julienne for a girl... which I also really love!

Julian is a boys name. I've never seen Julien. Julienne as far as I know is just a cutting technique. Julianne is a nice girl's name.

Julian is a boy's name. I also knew a Julien (which I think is the French version of Julian) who was a boy. If Juliet, Juliette, Julia, Julianne, Juliana, and Julie are not sufficient feminine options for you, I don't know what to say. I like Julian very much as a boy's name; please do not try to "make" it anything.
