If that name were pronounced like Gregor without the middle G - greh-er, grayr - instead of like grievous, I might think it was alright. As it is, though, I can hardly stand to look at it, it's so ugly.

Actually I like Greer better for a girl. Out of your combos I kind of like Greer Tobias, Greer Miles, Greer Isaac, Greer Thomas, and Greer Joseph.

Sounds to much like sneer or leer for me to like it. My favorite combos of your list are Greer Nathaniel and Greer Tobias.

I do like it better for a boy. I think it's absolutely hideous on a girl.

I really like it, but on a boy I think I prefer it spelled Grier.

I like these combos best:
Greer Francis
Greer Oliver
Greer William
Greer Julian
Greer Walter
Greer Franklin
Greer Nathan

Greer is the name of the (lady) villain in a story I wrote, though I could see it being used on a boy. Of your combos, I like Greer Samuel, Greer Silas, and Greer Miles the best. I think Greer might work better as a middle name, though.

Yeah, it's typically used more on girls but I'm crushing on it. I can definitely see how it would work a bit better in the middle.

Thanks!
