Carrington

I don't know how I feel about this name. 🤔

Would you consider it a boy or girl name? 

Re: Carrington

  • Neither. NAF if I’m being honest.

  • Sounds like a neighborhood to me.
    Carrington Estates...…….I wouldn't use it on a child and especially wouldn't use it for a BOY! I cant imagine a 15 year old boy introducing himself as Carrington.
  • Loading the player...
  • It makes me think of the Carrington family in Dynasty.
  • I guess a boy name, but I personally wouldn't use it for either. It made me think of the dental and vision discount program. 
  • Neither.....I would look for something else
  • I don’t like it, sounds like pretentious and trendy to me. 
  • It’s a last name only imo 


  • Meh. It sounds like you're trying to look like old money.
  • Sounds like a snobby last name.
  • Carrington college is popular around here... so neither.
  • I have a friend named Carrie that named her daughter Carrington. I especially didn’t like it then. It’s not my favorite, but if you love it, use it!
  • Carrington was the bad lady lead in Casper. She was snobby and evil, so that's what I associate this name with.

    She was Carrigan but same vibe 
  • My niece is named Kerrington so because of that, I consider it a girl name.

    Just because you are related/know someone with a "name" doesn't mean the name is a legit name (boy or girl). I could know a Miamibama and consider it a girl name- though completely made up.

    I didn’t comment on whether or not I thought it was a real name. I simply answered the OP’s question on whether you would consider it a boy or girl name.
