I know DH would have been a Jennifer (Jenny) bc my mil said there was a distant cousin one town over who was born the month before him and that's what she was named so she had trouble deciding if she'd change what she chose or not ;) krispi on "What would your name have been if you were the opposite gender?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-your-name-have-been-if-you-were-the-opposite-gender/page/2#post-1461132 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 08:38:48 +0000 krispi 1461132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I would have been Kevin, which is now my brother's name.

My mom said there were no gender scans back in the day so I'm thinking they must have considered a few boy names. I do know that my dad considered naming me Geraldine at some point but my mom vetoed it. I'm happier with the name I have than being a Geri. :-) Kimberlybee on "What would your name have been if you were the opposite gender?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-your-name-have-been-if-you-were-the-opposite-gender/page/2#post-1459731 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 00:23:39 +0000 Kimberlybee 1459731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I think I would have been a Benjamin or Benny.
