It's okay, and I prefer the Leigh spelling for a girl, rather than Lee. I think it sounds feminine enough, but that Lee looks too masculine.

I love it (for either gender) - especially concerning the history of the letter "g" between 1100 (A.D.) and 1550 (A.D.).

I find it interesting that you find such gender disparity for names that currently seem homophonic however equivocal & homonymic they may be!
