[Opinions] WDYTO Allison
I actually like it, but the thing I don't like the name Alice, since it reminds me of Alice and wonderland. What do you think of the name?

which means Allison is unisex, and I would never use it. Allison sounds feminie, but I fear someone silly would use this on a boy.

Check your facts, pretty please.Allison doesn't end in -son, it ends in -on. Very different.

It's my name :)So I have a certain amount of affection to it because of that, but I prefer Alice, actually.

hehe I love the name Alice because it reminds me of Alice in Wonderland!I never liked Allison. It has always been one of my least favorite names together with Sandra. I dislike the -son ending, I dislike the double L and just the sound of it and everything. Alison is much much better in my opinion but still I'm not a fan. It's overused as well.

AlisenI like it a lot, but spelled Alisen- I know I know, it's a trendy spelling and "why bother"? I just like the softer look with the 'e'.

I like it a lot. I doesn't make me think of Alice, even though it comes from it. Even if it did, I like Alice in Wonderland, so it wouldn't bother me. I also like it better spelled Alison.

I like Alison but the double L bothers and confuses me, because i's and l's look alike to my nearly, but not quite dyslexic self.

It just
is the most boring, dry name in the world. I mean. That's exactly what we need, a few more Allies. More Abbys and more Allies and more Katies.I think Alice is great and think the -n at the end completely spoils it. -n makes it just completely unappealing. I just do not like it at all.

I love Allison, though I prefer Alison. Another name that reminds me of an Elvis Costello song!

I've always liked Allison, but I prefer the one 'l' spelling Alison.
