This is quite odd...

English does not observe grammatical gender, except vestigially upon a few pronouns, and I believe that this is a feminine name to boot.

Your logic is flawed on so many levels. All I will say is that, not only does Saoirse mean both liberty and freedom in Irish, it is also a feminine noun in Irish! It is used as a girl's name in Ireland.

By all means use it for a boy, if you wish, but please don't try to reason it away with flawed logic.

How is freedom masculine while liberty is feminine? English doesn't have masculine and feminine nouns, so that doesn't make any sense to me. Saoirse is a feminine name, at least mostly.
