Re: Kay for a boy
in reply to a message by Joan-Ay
I see it only as a girl's name and just can't picture it on a boy (with all due respect to your Papa). But now that I think of it, I had a friend in high school whose mother married a man whose last name began with a K. My friend and her brothers started out calling him Mr. His-Full-Last-Name-That-Began-With-a-K, then shortened it to Mr. K., and then finally began calling him just K. So maybe it shouldn't seem so feminine to me. But it still does.
Kay seems like a nickname for Katherine to me, though, not a full name.
