I read (on wikipedia I think) that Erin has been used as a name only by Irish emmigrants, who were feeling nostalgic of their homecountry, like other Irish place names or rivers etc. Therfore these names aren't really used in Ireland.

And I also learnt that gender switches can happen with about every name in the US, somebody on the board here told me something like "no name seems to be too female to be used on a boy", especially with foreign names :)
