I know one female Ashley, who is 5 and I dont know very well. I know 2 male Ashleys, who are both 20. Therefore I consider it more of a masculine name. Nevertheless, I would definitely spell it this was Ashley, rather than some trendy "feminized" version like Ashlee or Ashleigh, which I think look tacky.

Obviously it's a name you really like so I don't think you should let the popularity put you off. Especially if you're not planning to have kids anytime soon; the popularity might be completely different by then!
