    Dale is lovely. I haven't heard that name for years. I went to school with a Dale and she was just gorgeous. Good luck deciding!

    Hmm not really my taste (for a boy or a girl) but I'm a big fan of masculine names for girls too.

    My personal fav - Francesca with "Frankie" for a nickname

    Thumbs up

    I met my hairdressers cousin (in her 30's) named Rhian (pronounced like Ryan) ... she said her parents had Ryan picked for a boy ... so hence how she got RHIAN ... she said she has always LOVED her name

    I told her my DD was born on her Uncle Ryan's birthday and if i'd heard of it before my DD was born i would have seriously considered one of her two middle names to be Rhian

    I prefer Dayle ... over Dale

    I use to work with a female named Jaimee (popular girl name in the years mid to late 60's) !!

    I'm personally not very keen on Dale- but if you both love it- then why not?

    Why don't you google 'unisex' names - you will probably find there are heaps of semi-masculine names for girls that are really nice.
    I met a girl the other day called Jayce - which could also be spelt Jaice. Thought that was kinda cute.
    I also have a neice Jaimee and a girlfriend called Alex (NOT shortened from Alexis or Alexandra).
    How about Shae? It is typically used as a boys name but is now being used for girls too.

    Hey !!! My name is Dayl, glad a majority of people in here like it for a girl

    I loved having a boys name and also loved having it spelt a little differently - made me a little unique so go for it !!!!

    Hi Oscaroscar

    Yep, thats me. I had to change my username because I have referred a few people to this site and didnt feel comfortable discussing intimite and personal pregnancy stuff in front of people who might recognise me via my old username.

    Nice to see someone remembers me!!

    Personally I think Dale is better for a boys name only because I have only met boys with the name.

    I like Jamie and Cameron

    I went to school with a girl called Dayle. She never got teased or anything. Personally I like 'pretty' names. But if you like boyish names this one is around and liked

    Hmm, personally I think it's a bit too masculine. I feel the same way about Dylan and James too actually. I sometimes like boys names for girls though.
