ArchivesRe: Which, that I'm a he?
in reply to a message by Noa
As far as I know Noa is unisex, but in the Netherlands Noa is more often used for girls and Noah for boys.
A few people in the Netherlands call there babyboy Emma or Emily, but I feel sorry for those boys...
If you follow this link you can see it:

Those male Emmas & Emilys probably aren't real
Many a time a parent or some other person has mistakenly checked "female" instead of "male" on the birth certificate, or visa versa. That, or a filing error or some other mistake. Such mistakes are rarer nowadays, because of computers, but they still occur.
English-speakers have "whoopsie"-ed this way too. Just check out the popularities for Jennifer, for example.
