Re: well these I find unisex [m]
Oh, not saying there's anything wrong with it at all - like you say, happens all the time the other way round, so why not? :) I just didn't know it was such a common trend back then in the US, and so it's really interesting. I can sort of see how Marion and Jessie and maybe even Pearl and Florence could be unisex, but the others... wow.

Actually I just found boys with these names :) [m]from a site that lists all the babies in the state, and the gender.Lily x 2
Elizabeth x 3
Sarah x 8
Rebecca x 4
Whitney x 12
Grace x 3and more, and they are not errors.ETA: there's even two boy's with my own name (Sabrina), and I found some sites that list my name as unisex.

Thanks, that's really interesting! Whitney doesn't surprise me, but the rest do. Wow. Sabrina is a lovely name, but for a boy? Not so much.
