I wouldn't use it bc it's not my personal style, but I'd think it was cute. I immediately think boy bc of Merle Haggard

Reminds me of twd. And nope I would never use it. Not my style

I have a 70 year-old neighbor named Merle. He is awesome, and my 3 yo calls him "Mr. Merle." So I think boy, but also, eh.

Not my style. I work in a seniors home and we had a Merle that lived there. She was a miserable old woman. haha. I think of it more feminine than masculine.

No. Not for either sex.

My mind goes right to Haggard. Thanks, dad. It's definitely not my style.

I kind of know a girl named Merle, and she hates it. I always see it as rhyming with Pearl, and associate it with a man's name.

I know a very sweet older woman with the name. I wouldn't use it. I like Meredith!

My dog is a merle.

I definitely think of Merle Haggard. Sadly (and coincidentally,) he passed away today on his birthday.

Makes me think of a Led Zeppelin song about a dog.

Nope nope nope.

@oliviaoblivia: @twodoghouse: When we adopted our dog the volunteer at the shelter glanced at his papers and told us his name was Merle. So we were calling him that for a while and then one of the actual employees was like yeah no that's the description of his coat. Haha. But we almost stuck with that as his name just because it was funny.

Definitely makes me think Walking Dead, and definitely not.

I immediately thought of TWD... it's definitely a boy name. I'm not a huge fan! I like Meryl for a girl though.

I like it for a boy name, reminds me of Merle Haggard, and I do know someone who has a 4 year old named that. But I'm in the south.
