At first, I thought that Yuki was a boy's name because of Yuki from Fruits Basket (he was the first person, real or fictional, that I knew as having the name). I think Yuki is a cute name for both genders, though probably a child with the name Yuki ought to be a girl, because apparently it's really a girl's name. If I were going to name something Yuki, it would probably be a character in a story or a pet (probably a rat, because of Yuki from Fruits Basket).
