if it's a girl...Devin

but I don't think it's very feminine.

I like it only for a boy.

Just don't let her go to Australia....

Someone named Devon would get some funny looks in Australia. Here it's our name for baloney, or whatever else you want to call it - that lunchmeat made out of assorted animals.

I like the name Devon for both genders (this is on my list of names that I like either way).

I grew up with a girl named Devan, so to me the -an spelling is very feminine. Devon and Devin look too masculine to my eyes.

I like it.

I like it, it' a guilty pleasure of mine.

love it for a girl only, so it gets a yay from me

I don't like Devon for a boy or a girl. The first Devon I knew, however, was a girl, so I tend to think of it as more feminine.

*sighs* I am so sick of the unisex name; there are plenty of girls' names on this website. You don't have to snatch a boy's name and use it on a girl since we have too much unused girls' names.

I really like it. I like it much more on a girl than a boy.

I don't like Devon (or any of the other spellings...) for a girl, nor do I like it for a boy. It's not something I find attractive in either the way it sounds or the way it looks.

I like the spelling Devin, Devan or Devyn better. Devon makes it look like "Dev-On" not "Dev-In" which is how I would pronounce it.

I think it's incredibly trendy sounding.

I used to really like Devon for a boy, but I got over that when I left middle school. ;)

Actually...

I saw it on a grocery store cashier a few weeks ago, and it popped out at me as kind of nice for a girl. It's not my style, of course, but okay for someone else, KWIM? My Mum's friend Joy has 5 daughters- Alexis, Laura, and, among the other two (whose names I can't remember), Devon. I also knew a girl whose name was spelled Devyn, and a boy named Devin.

I personally prefer the sp Devin. The un sound at the end sounds really harsh to me, especially for a girl. I really like Devin for a boy though, but I dont hate it for a girl. I guess its one of Kris' True Unisex names.
