Re: Everest
in reply to a message by Bex
I am beginning to feel the same, but don't know why. What do you think makes it a boy's name, just out of curiosity?

Everything sounds male to me! lol, all unisex names I prefer on boys (except Evelyn).
Everest has that cool funky feel, it sounds surnamey to me so I would never use it on a girl.

I don't like the name, and I know this question wasn't directed at me, but I am going to put my two cents in anyway ;). The name Everest reminds me of the mountain, and mountains are kind of masculine to me for some reason, so it follows that the name itself would suit a male better. But that's just me.

Actually I think most mountains would fit feminine symbology in a Freudian sense better. I think more of them are likely to remind people of breasts than phalluses --which is exactly how the Grand Tetons in Wyoming, USA, got their name.

I was referring specifically to Schezar's statement.

good point, nt,
Personally, I dislike on either gender but I like Everett so Everest naturally seems a bit more like a male name to me because of the similarity (or because of the rugged-mountain-man connotation? lol).
