I believe that the Welsh name Morgan started out as a masculine name, despite Geoffrey of Monmouth's popularizing it as a feminine name in the Arthurian tales.

And, of course, the name Morgan has been in the lead as a feminine name in the U.S. -- from the 1980s up until the present.

•Quite true. Altho I personally know or know of guys with each of those names (except Courtney and Bailey), the only little people I've heard them attached to lately are girls. · Daividh · 9/9/2001, 9:54 PM
