It was used for a boy on my family tree, in 1875. His younger sister and her husband emigrated from the UK to South Africa before 1900 and had a family of sons, one of whom they named Campbell. I have no idea why: they weren't a Scottish family for instance. My family were in contact with some of his brothers, but I never met him: he lived in a different part of the country it seems. It did make me associate Campbell as a fn as being strictly male. I also know a thoroughly unpleasant person whose ln is Campbell, and that doesn't inspire me to like it for either gender.
