Thoughts on the name Denver for a girl?

I am wanting to name my baby girl Denver but my husband doesn’t care for the name and says it sounds more boyish…what do you think?

I’m 45, I grew up with boys named Stacey, Kim, Kelly… I love the name Denver!!!
Let your husband pic her middle name. If she doesn’t like Denver then she can go by her middle name.

My daughter’s name is Hunter…I like Denver for a girl it’s unique!

I think it’s unique. She might hate you for that though lol

I’m not a fan of unisex names. But Dakota is a boys name and there is a famous actress named Dakota Fanning. It’s done. Do I think ppl will hear the name Denver and assume boy? Yes

When I hear Denver as a name I think of Denver Pyle (Uncle Jesse, Dukes of Hazzard).

Boyish, Ihave BIL named Denver.

My friend named her daughter Denver, beautiful name

Unless you want her gay best friends to call her denver haaaaays then I wouldn’t.

Names don’t have genders. Name your baby whatever you like!

i would think its a boy yes

Personally my fat ass doesn’t like it for either sex because I immediately think of omelettes :joy:

Michael Learned, Glenn Close, George’s Sand, Isaak Dinesin (Karen Blixen), Dakota Fanning: masculine names for girls have always been en vogue and often served women in jobs well. There will probably be a nickname that gets conferred on her anyway, like Koko.

I think it’s a unisex name but leans more towards boy

No. It sounds like a boy name.
