Nooooo!

Wesley is all boy (and dorky boy at that). And Ophelia is so prissy and girly. I think they mix like vinegar and oil. Sorry! I like most of the other possibilities you've posted before.

Okay it even says that wesley is masculine on this site so definitly do not use it

Wesley is my boyfriend's name. I couldn't see it little girl. It also reminds me of Westley from "The Princess Bride" who was quite manly imo. Ophelia is goregous though, you should definitly use it.

I find it really sweet sounding. "Wesley Ophelia", it flows off the tongue so nicely.

---

I intensely dislike Wesley on a boy - it sounds dorky to me - but on a girl I don't have that connotation at all for some reason :-)

---

My favourite of the names you've mentioned is still Hollis though ... I think Hollis Ophelia Wright would be just gorgeous.

---

Good luck, as always

I really love Wesley...on a boy. I dislike it immensely on a girl. And don't even think about changing the spelling to something like Wesleigh or Weslee to make it look more feminine. It won't work. :-) However, I truly love the name Ophelia. Perhaps you could use Ophelia as a fn?

Wesley on a girl? I'm sorry, but I think that's horrible! Wesley is just such a masculine name, not for a female at all.

I destest Wesley on a boy or girl, i think its a horrible boring name

---

I think Bryce would go really well with your kids names or Hollis, both are a bit more unusual but pleasant!

Not for a girl. In fact it's only a surname to me. I love Ophelia.

I don't like it for a girl but I have a friend named Wesley Anne it was used b/c it was her mum's surname

Wesley is a BOY name, and it's absolutely awful on a girl!

It's nice enough

---

It's normally nmsaa for a girl, but for you I think it fits in rather well. Wesley flows well with Ophelia imo.

As I said on UUCN... I don't really like it.

Georgia Dean is AMAZING, so is Charlotte Dean. Girl names with cute, boyish nicknames, it'll fit! JMHO :))))))

Wesley sounds incredibly masculine to me, and pairing it with something as frilly as Ophelia is just weird imo. It sounds very wrong. Sorry.

Not for a girl. Not with Ophelia.

I agree that it's all boy. What about Wynn?

Wesley is a total guys name in my opinion and I know you go for the unisex names but I think Wesley is to manly for a little girl.

Dare to be different

With the occurrence of cross gender-ing of names, I could (barely) see some of the male or unisex names you've used or thought of used on girls, but Wesley is not one of them - not by a long shot. It's pure male to me, no ifs, ands, or buts about it. It just ugly for a girl, I think. Sorry to be blunt.

---

Edit: Spelling.

I like Ophelia but do not like Wesley.

Don't like it.

---

Wesley is all-male to me. I just can't see it as a girl's name. I'm still going for Georgia Dean.

I don't post much, but I thought I'd ask: Have you considered the name Devin/Devon? My favorite from your other post is definitely Bryce. Wesley, IMO, just doesn't have a good sound. Also, Ophelia is a great mn.

It's awful, your'e mixing up trend with a classic name.
It's so bad that saying it hurts.

---

My ex bf's name is Wesley, i like it for a boy, but i really really dislike it on a girl, which is probably why you love it teehee..:) I do love Ophelia as a middle name, it's absolutely beautifull!

Sorry, but I find Wesley very unnattractive on either gender, but particularly harsh on a girl (& I like unisex style names). What other names do you like?

I dont like Wesley much but Ophelia is lovely

No, I don't like it full stop. It reminds me of weasels.

Lister: Kryten 2X4B 523P? Is that your full name?
Kryten: Yes, but I don't like the 2X4B. Such a dorky middle name. Then again, I knew an android who's middle name was 2Q4B.

I don't like it, sorry

---

Ophelia is amazing, I love it :)

---

Wesley is not a very strong name on either sex imo, I prefer Weston or Westley

Blech. This is mostly based off of my experiences with Wesleys (with one, really--just the one that's related to me), but I think Wesley is an absolutely horrible name. (The fact that I only think of an overweight, wrestling-obsessed elementary school kid probably is blinding me to what little charm Wesley might have, but I also dislike the sound.)

---

If you absolutely much have a Wes- name, I'd go with Westley. Even though it's what I think of as off-limits-for-all-girls (thank Westley the farm boy for that, hee), I'd like it better than Wesley (which ought to be a synonym for ralph, if you ask me).
