What gender do you jump to

I love Mack, but I dont like using "nicknames" for names... and I really cant find another mack name that I Love...

Oh well, it is as I assumed, just too feminised... Shame... think I am going to have to move on...

Hun you go with what you and DP want

It isnt an overly common name one way or the other. As a teacher I havent come across any Mackenzies boys or girls.

It is kind of like the name Ashley Could be girl or boy. If your son feels its not masculine enough then he can call himself Macca (which lets face it in high school thats what kids do- shorten names.

If you really love it and your DH does too then you name your little boy Mackenzie.

Girl here! First I heard of it being used as a first name was when my sister used for her daughter, who is now 9.

Definately a girl, I hadn't even thought it could go for a boy but guess from other posts it can.
