HelpRe: Florence on a boy?
in reply to a message by Quill
Yes, I can imagine this one on both girls and boys. Weird. As I mentioned before in the Francis thread, it really doesn't happen very often that I find a name fitting for both genders.
I maybe even find Florence a little more masculine than feminine. I suppose this is because of the "Flor" beginning which right away reminds me of Florian. Or maybe it's the "o" which is very masculine to me. And of course, "-ence" names tend to go well with both genders.
With Laurence it's just slightly different, because I think of Laurenz when I hear it and this one is definitely masculine.
I would love to see Florence as a middle name. A great one! Very classy and noble. And I love "Flor-" names. They have this floral touch to them...
