Re: Sky... for a boy
in reply to a message by mirfak
I guess I must have misunderstood you, I'm sorry. I thought you were saying that Sky, just like Ryan, was always a boys name to begin with and has only become unisex recently and I disagree with that as it has always been a word and not used much until the 1990s, and even then it only made the top 1000 for girls. I didn't want to upset you, I feel I upset you earlier when I commented on Valentine. I didn't mean it as an attack or anything, I was just curious.

Sometimes I read you as snotty if it seems like you just contradict me, not in a conversational way but just make directly contradictory statements as if you are correcting me for the general public's edification. Sorry - I try not to get all snipey over it.
I don't have any reason to believe Sky was ever used for girls before the 1980s or so. But I would buy that it was used rarely, or as a form of Skye. I dunno. My impression is that among the living, anyway, it's unisex.

Sorry! I didn't mean it that way.
