It seems like Allison has some true masculine usage behind the future feminine usage, unlike the spelling with only one l.
I think this name is cute for boys or girls. It’s original and unique to name your son Allison. It’s not too feminine! You put boy names on girls, but Allison is not too much like a feminine name for a boy. Some girl names seem to suit boys I have to admit! However, because of the usage it’s still better for a girl, but it’s still nice for a boy too!

I'd love to see some more research on the original gender for this name...
Other information I've found online says this is one of those names that was commonly used as a surname before a first name (like Ryan or Austin, etc.).
My 3x great grandfather was "Allison John Horner," very much a male. Looking through census records just in 1860 in the US, I'm seeing almost 2,000 males with the first name Allison. I'm thinking there is a fair bit of information to support this being a male name as well as female.
