ArchivesRe: The MASCULINE usage of the name ALISSON that it can be UNISEX.
in reply to a message by Teddy01
He also has a brother named Muriel :)
I don't know why or how his parents named him or his brother, since Alison and Muriel are traditionally female names in English-speaking countries, but just because the name was given to a boy doesn't automatically make it unisex. After all, there are girls named James and Michael, and other traditionally masculine names, but those haven't necessarily become unisex.
