[Opinions] Cameron ...?
Wdyt of Cameron for a girl? I view it, with this spelling, as a more masculine name. For whatever reason, I really like the spelling Kamryn - call me trendy, that's fine - nd am considering putting it on my list for a possible future girl. I picture soo many possibilities, tomboyish, girly, spunky, etc. with this name. What are your honest thoughts, nd different spellings that look more feminine than Cameron? Also, do you think it goes well with Casey William?

I'm actually not opposed to this name on a girl. I think is sounds kinda feminine to begin with. I like the spelling Camryn.
I strongly dislike it. I much prefer it on a boy.
I know lots of male Camerons and yet I prefer it on a girl too! I know of only one little girl with the name and she spells it Kamryn. I don't like that spelling though...
I dislike the name for either sex because I don't like the meaning and it is a surname. I find it far too masculine for a girl and I personally I don't think changing the spelling makes a name look any more feminine.
Boy
for me, Cameron only works for a girl when using the nn Cami. but thats probably because I know a girl who does that.
Cameron is one of the few unisex names I like on a girl
I think she goes great with brother Casey (having the same initial consonant sound is a little unfortunate, but oh well). But Kamryn completely ruins it. It's just not the same name anymore. It looks made up. Maybe if you want a similar look and feel, how about Korinna? It's legit, and I love it.

I don't like Cameron on either gender, honestly. When I hear it, I think boy right away. Changing the spelling doesn't make it more feminine imo, as the sound remains the same (admittedly, there are names that a spelling change does make it look more feminine, though it doesn't sound any differently). Could I sell you on Carmen? It has a similar sound but is decidedly feminine. Casey and Carmen would be a cool sibset.
Cameron is all boy to me, but I don't really like it. I had a friend from high school (a girl) named Camryn. While I wouldn't use Camryn either, I think it ages well. I like that spelling (and pronunciation -- I say it KAM-rin whereas Cameron is KAM-er-in). Camryn doesn't look made-up to me like Kamryn does. That K just reeks of "kre8tyvity" IMO.
I prefer the spelling Cameron, and I love the nn Cam/Cammie, for some reason. I don't see it as exclusively masculine, more as an established unisex name. And yes, I think Kamryn's a bit trendy, but I can see why you might like it; it looks cute and more modern. I actually sort of like the meaning "crooked nose";maybe it's my quirky sense of humor, but it seems to denote character. Anyway, I think it goes well with Casey...I wouldn't worry too much about the name looking feminine, but that's just me.
I think it's too masculine for a girl, and the meaning "crooked nose" is ghastly. With any spelling, i still find it unusable and very unfeminine for a girl. I'd go with, Carmen.
I dislike it, it's masculine to me, I know 2 male Camerons
