Romilly
What do you think of Romilly for a boy? I've always thought it looks and sounds masculine (although I admit that the -milly part is a bit feminine) and according to the user-submitted information on Romilly is was once masculine.
Is it usable for a boy? What do you think of it in general?

I don't like it, I think it sounds like a name for a rat. It's more masculine, IMO.

I have a French girl friend named Romélie (same pronounciation).

I love it- for a girl.IMHO it sounds slightly androgynous- so it might work on a boy, especially since it isn't common or anything so no one will know. But I prefer it as a mn for both genders, and maybe as a fn for a girl.

I've always thought of it as masculine. I just don't see the femininity in this name.

I don't think of it as a name at all, but if any, it's masculine-looking and -sounding to me.

I don't think it could be used for a boy, it's definitely a feminine name- Though Romy could be used for a boy, it's pretty close!
I Hadn't heard of this name until a few weeks ago, and fell in love with it, it's just gorgeous :)
