I just think boys like to blend in more. It's a lot more difficult for a boy to make it through the trials of childhood recess teasing with an odd name. And
Lyric is a fairly soft, musical, *pretty* sounding name. It's not going to project the image that a lot of boys are going to want to have. Some boys could carry it off fine though... I guess it depends on how confident you are of your genetics. ;)
