Lindsay
I recently saw a male with the name Lindsay, and was surprised to see that it was also a male name. So WDYT? In your eyes is Lindsay a male or female name? I've always liked the name and now think that it would look nice on either, though only as a mn on a boy. Then again I also see Alexis as a strictly boy name, but that's because in France, it is a strictly male name. Any input??Renée

I prefer Lindsey on a boy. That spelling is the only spelling I like though.-Seda*

The first Lindsey I ever knew was a man; he'd be about 50 years old now.I tend to think of Lindsay as feminine and Lindsey as masculine, but I've known male Lindsays and female Lindseys, so maybe the spelling doesn't matter anymore.

I think Lindsay is a girls name but still... Alexis is a name that in my opinion can work for a boy or a girl.

I prefer it for a girl, but I have seen it for a boy too, my grandfather's brother is named Lindsay (my grandfather is named Leslie)

Entirely female ...But it was one of the most popular girls' names in my school. I know at least 20 female Lindsey's. So in my book, it's as established for girls, as John is for boys._____________________________________________________________________Elinor"Yeehaw!" is not a foreign policy!

I like Lindsay only for a girl, although I prefer the sp. Lyndsey or Lynsey. I just don't see it as a guy's name although I know that it is.

The first Lindsay I ever knew was a boy. I see it as a both sexes name - I've always liked it.
