Dale for a girl???

What do you think? I love slightly masculine names for girls, but hubby and I are really finding it hard to agree on something.

I prefer Dayle as the spelling though :)

I quite like the name but would probably change the spelling to Dayle- just to give it that feminine touch. I once knew a lady whoses name is Dayle and she was very lovely.
Good luck with deciding!

I knew a Dale in my year at high school, she ended up vice-captain ;) A really great name I think. I wouldn't put a 'y' in there personally, probably because I knew a 'Dale' so I don't really see it as an exclusive boys name.

There is a lovely bellybelly lady called Dayl. I think it is great. ;)

Leasha I prefer Dale to Dayle or Dayl too :).

I think Dale is a cute name for a girl! It can definately be swung both ways...
I love Dylan for a girl... Like off Desperate House Wives hehe

Yeah one of our clients is a Dale, and she is lovely.

I like it :) Although my preference would be Dayl - just cos of that strange "y" obsession I have goin on.. lol

I think Dale is beautiful. (I'm not a huge y in names person for some reason)

Do you have other boy/girl names on your list? I love James, am quite partial to Elliott (watched too much Scrubs perhaps), and Cameron is okay too.

We know we are having a girl. I think there is a model named Frank, or is it James??? :doh: This is so hard.

I went to school with a chick called Shane..

Love Dale. I had a little friend (1970s) who was called Dale. She grew up lovely too. :)

DS's kinder teacher is Shayne! And I know a Shayna!

I really like all these choice here - Dayle, Elliott, Cameron!

I know a girl called Dale and her husband has a traditionally 'feminine' name so it confuses people sometimes (they think she's him and vice versa) but other than that I like it.

I also prefer Dayle for a girl.

I'm not keen on Dale for a girl, but have you considered Cameron or Jordan? These can both be shortened to more feminine nicknames if she so wishes, Cammy or Jordie.

Just a suggestion :)

There's a female model or something called James. I also love Jolie which could easily be Joel. Joele?

I dont like the name dale for a girl or a boy! lol
But What about Frankie?...I like Cameron for a girl too. You could go the Darryl (Hannah) route too maybe? But I cant imagine Daryl as a girls name - too weird with DH being Daryl lol

i like Dale, but, would probably go Dayle thou..
I went to school with a Jamie, which was i always thought was nice.
Quite liked the suggestion of Jordan.
