[Opinions] Re: Hazel on a Boy
in reply to a message by Zina
Nope. Hazel is purely feminine. It might suit a boy if he had the right personality for it, but it just works better on a girl.

Allen and Kieran are masculine. Allen especially sounds dumb on a girl - what’s wrong with Alana? Alanis? Alani? Even Allena would have been better.

I'm wondering if they were thinking of Ellen and Allie and somehow completely forgot that Alan / Allan / Allen existed?

Who knows? Either way, this masculine-to-feminine name trend needs to die.

HazaelI kinda like Hazael, actually - though I don’t really know why. It would be a much better choice of a boy than Hazel, though.

I disagree; it would be like saying Rachael would make a better male name than Rachel.

Apparently, they're not pronounced the same. We all know how Hazel is pronounced, but it appears that Hazael is HAZ-ay-el. Like, stick a long I in the middle.

Hazael is a purely male name while Hazel is not, though. What’s your point?

Agree, but also I do think Rachael is more masculine than Rachel lol.
Hazael reminds me of names like Raphael and Azazel.
