HelpRe: Which 1 please?
in reply to a message by Korinna
I suppose I shouldn't have said "only ever used," since I'm sure there are a few boys named Avery ruining around. But I do live in British Columbia (which is what I meant by "my part of the world"), and I imagine there is some regional variation as Canada is a rather large country. For whatever reason BtN's popularity charts only include British Columbia rather than the whole of Canada, and Avery for a boy has never charted here (it may very well have in more eastern parts of the country).
I actually prefer Addison as a masculine name, but I don't think I've ever actually seen it used that way.

I just looked at that on the popularity. For the British Columbia chart, it looks like they only show the top 150, so it might be hard to say how usage compares for boys there, but I do see it has been slightly more popular in general there than in the US, so the idea of it as a feminine name might be more noticeable. Unfortunately either way the name still sounds very masculine to me. It's recent popularity as a girls' name still alludes me, so maybe I'm just in denial haha.
