Does the name Adrian sound like it's for a girl?

Question

I'm having my second baby boy due in July and I decided to name him Adrian. I've never told anyone but his dad but, guess what? It's like men don't know how to keep their mouth shut. I told him I didn't want anyone to know because I didn't want to get judged. I was going to announce it when I give birth to him. On Easter, I had no idea he told his family until they all started to make fun of the name Adrian. They all kept saying it is a girls name. 😒 I was upset and yesterday I changed his name and started to address him as "Baby K" now. But, I'm still stuck. I really liked the name Adrian. 😓

Answer

Adrian is a boy name,  Adrienne is a girl name.

Adrian is a boy, Adrienne or Adryenne is a girl. It's a unisex name like Casey or Kelly. Spelling helps to distinguish the sex of the person but it's neither A boys name or A girls name, it's both. Name him what you like cuz he's yours.

Answer

Pretty sure it's primarily a boy's name. I've heard of several boys named Adrian. Rarely heard of any girls named Adrian. I think they're overreacting. Either way, it's your child and if you like the name Adrian, then that's what you should name him.

Answer

My dad is called Adrian, and he's not a girl! I think there is a girl's slightly adapted version. Adrienne maybe? But Adrian... is definitely a boys name!
