well - the response you get when you confess that you love unisex names - is that it would be fine if boy's started getting girl's names - and how it's innately sexist that they're not. Looks like that barrier might have been cracked :) (but not a single one of my faves among them...)
I suspect that a bunch of these are typos - with people just misspelling - or not being familiar with uncommon names (Sarah could have been Sarava or Saral etc). Nine boy Jasmine's does seem a lot though?

I wouldn't get high hopes of them being typos. I really have seen girls James, Jonah, Jude, Judah, Michael, Miles, Noah, Orion, Ellis,
Sawyer, Wyatt, and Jackson among the more popular Addisons, etc.
I hve also seen boys named Madison, Morgan, Mackenzie, Ashley, Ellis, Jasmine Meadow, Sarah, Evelyn, Hazel, Ashlyn, Emerald, Paris Promise, Fallon and Nancy.

These poor, poor children...
What is WRONG with these parents? Its like they're permanently cursing their children with a lifetime of teasing.

Nancy for a boy is just MEAN!
I do, however, like these:
GIRLS
Elliott [25]
James [7]
Jude [7] - on the fence with this one.
Ever [9]
George [4] - as a nn for something else.
BOYS
Jasmine [9]
Ellis [184]
Emerson [131]
Evelyn [2] - I love this.
Paris [111] - I love love this.
Nancy [1] - This is just *terribly* nasty! Argh!
