Yuri is all male to me. (m)

Yuri is the Russian form of George. To me, it would be like naming a girl Boris or Vladimir.
Dr. Zhivago's name in the book is Yuri. He was played by Omar Sharif (sp?) in the movie. His love interest in the book is Lara, if that helps to ring a bell. Then there's Yuri Gagarin, the Soviet cosmonaut. To sum up, I just can't picture Yuri on a girl.
I must admit I don't like the name Yuri, even for a boy. I always think, "urine." Sorry.
