I'm super jealous now, I would love to be called Gray! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-20799 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 23:44:17 +0000 Rosie Girl 20799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like it! I like names that are different, but not overly odd. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-20787 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 23:21:59 +0000 tequiero21 20787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>love the name since it sounds so close to my name hehe. but i do think the "son" is more masculine. maybe gracen? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-19582 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 16:53:53 +0000 mediagirl 19582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm...I'm probably not the best to ask b/c I'm not a fan of trendy/yuppy names but I do sort of like Grayson for a girl's name. I'm not sure about the spelling...but I like the sound of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-19573 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 16:35:12 +0000 oliviaoblivia 19573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like it, but think I'd use it for a middle name so she has the option of a feminine name. I think anything with '-son' is too masculine. IMHO </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-19569 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 16:26:53 +0000 meaganceleste 19569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've actually seen Gracyn for a girl, same pronunciation, but a little more feminine spelling since it plays off of Grace. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-19187 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 08:49:51 +0000 Adira 19187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's definitely not girly, but I do like it! And I agree with @erinpye - I would change the spelling so it doesn't have "son" in it, to be less masculine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-19178 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 08:38:24 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 19178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like it. It's different, unexpected and seems so cool. I would do it. And it's a pretty unisex name if you ask me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-19098 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 00:38:39 +0000 Killer b 19098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a fan. It could grow to be trendy, but whatevs. It's a pretty name, and would be fun for a girl </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-19021 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 22:04:00 +0000 JessicaMcB 19021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As someone whose guilty pleasure is 'Drop Dead Diva', I would always think of Grayson as a more masculine name. Also, I don't know if I'd want to be called "Gray" as a young woman personally.</p> <p>If you like the trendier namesbut want something girlier there is always Sophia, Eva, Emma, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-19018 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 21:55:49 +0000 erinpye 19018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would change the spelling so it's less masculine--something like Graysen. I also agree with previous posters, it's a VERY popular name right now, I know of 4 recent Graysons, and one more on the way, all boys. As a girl with the name Erin, I got really tired of having boys named Aaron in my classes growing up--made me feel like I had a boy's name and I never once had a class with no other Aarons or Erins. I hated being "Erin P." instead of just "Erin." (just a personal rant on having a popular name growing up ;) ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-18958 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 20:05:47 +0000 MsMini 18958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Greyson is super popular right now, at least where I live, I have seen at least 6 of both genders in the past year (I have seen is about as much as Ava, Sophia, and the Aiden group of names) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-18953 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 20:02:16 +0000 AmeliaBedelia 18953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>To me, it's a "boy name" because I went to school with a Graylon and a Grayson (not related, lol). So I automatically associate it with them. But it is a nice name, so if you see it as a girl's name then go for it. I see no reason not to. There are tons of gender neutral names out there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-18952 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 19:59:56 +0000 Emela 18952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Grayson is pretty cool and catchy for a girls name. It is not girlish, but I could picture a girl being named Grayson without finding it wrong/misplaced. I think it's a good choice. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-18945 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 19:51:09 +0000 Mrs. D 18945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like it, it's not girly, but it doesn't necessarily sound like you gave your daughter a boys name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-18908 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 18:26:09 +0000 mrsjyw 18908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I LOVE IT.

I think, though, if you did name your daughter that, then she'll be the coolest gal on the block! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-18886 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 16:10:30 +0000 wife09mommy11 18886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There were 3 couples in our childbirth class last month that were all planning to name their baby girls Grayson.

I would definitely think she was a boy from her name. I like the name itself though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-18852 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 13:17:56 +0000 looch 18852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think it sounds very girly, I'd prepare for a lifetime of correcting people. I'd probably only use it for a girl if there was a family connection and likely as a middle name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-18839 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 12:53:25 +0000 nana87 18839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>one of the female contestants on Top Chef this season is named Grayson.

I love the name, but I'd say not feminine enough. Maybe an altered spelling? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-this-name-sound-girly-enough#post-18827 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 12:18:47 +0000 LAGS 18827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Grayson for a girl. I don't think its overly 'girly' though, but still great for a girl. I really like Gray as a nickname too. </p>
