Gender Descriptive Names

Lol. I remember my sis was called "Frans" several times when her name is "Fransisca". Believe me or not, she has a friend named "Johnny", a girl. She got the name because she was mistakenly thought born as boy in the first place, though she has been renamed "Gabrielle" years ago.

My middle name, Michel also sounds ambiguous. People tend to pick me if I mention to my full name. They thought my name is "Michelle".

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I work at a call center as a mod looking after the queue and long calls. There was someone named Kelly that was on a long call so I walked over to see if she needed any help..... I didin't know Kelly so I called out 'which one of you ladies is Kelly?' and a guy spoke up 'that would be my name.... don't worry I get that look alot'
I felt really bad but we both got a good laugh out of it though....

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I wouldn't name a child a name that clearly belongs to the opposite sex. I don't see the point. There's always going to be misunderstandings and teasing (kids). Rather than to put a child through all that, I would give a name that's specific to their gender. My son's got a cool name, but the only problem is that people who don't know him assume a "common" spelling mistake.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I agree, I currently work on order fulfillment and complete order requests over a chat room... some of the names I get are a little tough to figure out what gender to put on the account when I am creating it, some names gave my co-workers and I a good laugh.... like this one "Harshit" to us newfies it translates to "Horseshit"
