I really dislike it.

I really like Shelby!

It is okay for a girl. I don't see it being nice on a boy but it could work since Shelby is also a surname.

I thought it was odd and bland the first time I heard it (when I was a kid, while watching Steel Magnolias), but it seems a bit like, uh... Kelsey, Shannon, Blair, Colby.
When I think of it beyond that, it reminds me of poets (Shel, Shelley).
The meaning's not bad. I don't think I'd react to their name either positively or negatively, if I met one.

For some reason it reminds me of turtles. Might be the "shell" part.

It’s a rare mix of surname and perpetual toddler. Hate it.

Perpetual toddler is a perfect description!

I like it! It sounds cute and unique, a bit old-fashioned but not bad. Reminds me a lot of Shelly.

Hi !!!!
My only link with Shelby is a character in 'American Horror Story: Roanoke' as I've never seen 'The Woman in Red' (unfortunately).
After the TV series's link I find Shelby too surnamey and nicknamey. It is worse than Shelley which has instead a strong literarian vibe.
Then Shelby is too similar to the Italian adjective 'scialbo' that means "dull, faint, colourless, flat' so it has quite the same personality.
