Is the middle name Leigh too feminine for a boy??

Question

My husband really wants baby to have my middle name. This is our first. I think we should wait and save it for a little girl. He insists that it’s not too girly. What do you think??

Answer

It isn't too girly if you spell it Lee

Answer

I think it’s just fine. Especially bc the first name will surely be more masculine, right?

Answer

AFAIK the spelling of Leigh was always a man’s name until more modern times.

Answer

A friend of mine is named Leigh (male), whereas my mum’s shortened name is Lee, along with another friends mum. So definitely safe with that spelling for a boy!

Answer

I feel like the spelling is very feminine not the name. Leigh I associate with girls automatically.

Answer

My dad’s and brother’s is Lee.

Answer

It can’t be Lee. It would have to be Leigh. That’s why I made this post. My husband insists that it has to be Leigh. It. Can. Not. Be. Lee.

Answer

Just spell it Lee.
