I automatically think of girl - two of my friends both named there respective daughters Mackenzie, so i could be biased - I LOVE that name but it was vetoed by DH

Originally I would have said boy, before finding BB, but then there are a couple of little girls named Mackenzie on here so I am heading more for girl these days... sorry not much help am I!

I automatically think girl

[Cricket]

Definitely girl for me.

[Manhattan]

Boy for me, I dont know anyone by this name IRL, and for me it conjures up nicknames like Mac and Macca which are boy names for me

[willow5]

I think girl I like it

I think of a girl.

[ezymay]

I think girl!

I automatically think girl but thats because there is a radio announcer on the local wire who has a daughter named Mackenzie Paige and he talks about her heaps during his shows.

Thanks... I was assuming most people would jump to girl, but Manhattan, it is great to know some think BOY.

I love it as a boys name... Mack... I always have, I think is is a strong sounding masculine name, But now is is so female orientated, I am concerned that if I chose to use is that way my poor son would be though of as a girl when people read his name, or calling out Mackenzie in a playground, I would get 10 girls looking round, and then my poor little boy... And knowing how many people love is as a girls name worries me too...

Dunno, we are really struggling with naming this little one...

Girl... only know girls with this name.

[{sarah}]

Boy for me and I don't know anyone with the name other than one that has it as a middle name, oddly enogh a girl LOL!

[MrsB26]

i think of a GIRL but these days anything goes and i wouldnt be suprised or shocked if someone had a boy and used this name. Names are just soooo hard

[Hollybolly]

I always used to think of it as a boys name, but in the last few years I know of 2 baby girls that have been born & named MacKenzie so now I'm a bit swayed

No help, sorry sweetie xxx

[Mrs Jak]

Definately a girl.
