It just makes me think of the Dragon Age games - the church of the main religion is known as the Chantry.

---

It doesn't really sound name-y to me. Surname-y, maybe. I could see Chant as a name a little easier (I've got a DnD character by that name, so that might be why).

It makes me think of sea shanties.

---

I don’t like it but I could see it as unisex. Chant reminds me og Chantal and Chan reminds me of Chandler.

I kind of like it, but it's not my style. Reminds of of Chancey and Chauncey. I'd picture it as a preppy boy's name but it could also be a girl. Reminds me of Chandler too, but the ending sounds more preppy.

I suppose it's gender-free. And I'd guess that they'd have a sibling named Belfry or Apse.

Really ugly

I immediately think of a pantry.

I think it's unisex.

Don't like it, probably more feminine

Reminds me of Chantrix, the stop-smoking drug.

Its unisex. It's not my favorite but it's not bad.

When I saw this I honestly thought it said Charity for a second.

Anyways, I'm not a fan. It sounds looks and sounds like a mixture of charity and pantry.

Reminds me of "pantry" but I also got the feeling I'd seen the word before so I googled it and yeah it's a word. I cba re-writing it so here's the wikipedia entry for those who are too lazy to google;

"A chantry may refer to one of two meanings of the term. Firstly, it could mean the prayers and liturgy in the Christian church reserved for the dead as part of the search for atonement for sins committed during their life.[1] It might include the mass and by extension, the endowment left for the purpose of the continuance of prayers and liturgy.

---

It could be called a type of "trust fund" established during the pre-Reformation medieval era in England for the purpose of employing one or more priests to sing a stipulated number of services for the benefit of the soul of a specified deceased person, usually the donor who had established the chantry in his will. There could be a stipulated period of time immediately following her/his death. It was believed such masses might help atone for misdeeds and with mercy enable the soul to be granted eternal peace in the presence of God.

---

Chantries were commonly established in England and were endowed with lands, rents from specified properties and other assets by the donor, usually in his will. The income from these assets maintained the "chantry" priest."

Not a fan. Don't like the sound, don't like the meaning.
