WDYTO Greer?

I really love this name!
I like it spelt more like Grier or Grear but Greer is just fine.
What are your thoughts/opinions on this name?

Greer, I can handle, because--well, c'mon, Greer Garson. Can't say no to that.

Grier looks like it should rhyme with "crier" and not "leer," though. It doesn't make sense to me as a spelling. And Grear just looks misspelled and greasy.

Name of a fairly large city in SC where I did my student teaching...to me, it's like name a kid Indianapolis, Boston, or Syracuse. Also, the surname of the head of the voice dept. where I went to college.

I really love this name, though I only realy like it spelled Greer. I like that it's a little harsher than most girls' names. Flowery isn't always best.

It's not very pretty or feminine sounding to me, it's quite harsh. I don't find this as horrible as other surnames like Mackenzie and Mackenna though.

I would use it on a boy, personally.

Sorry, to me it's ugly and mannish seeming.

In spelling only, I prefer Grier, but either way, it's definitely NMS. It sounds strangled when you say it.

It is my niece's middle name (spelt this way) and I absolutely love it. I think some people might find it a bit 'harsh' for a girls name but I don't think it is at all.

It's one of my best friend's names. I only like it spelled Greer.
