Boy Names for Girls

  1. Crosby

      Irish
    • Meaning:

      "village with crosses"
    • Description:

      This musical surname, associated with Bing Crosby and David Crosby of Crosby, Stills, & Nash could easily be used for girls, as names like Jagger and Bowie have been.
  2. Easton
    • Origin:

      English
    • Meaning:

      "east facing place"
    • Description:

      Easton is a stylish Waspy-sounding surname that's climbing up the popularity charts. TV actress Elisabeth Rohm named her daughter Easton August Anthony, which seemed like a real gender bender, and now Rachel Leigh Cook has made it the middle name of her baby Charlotte. Note that Easton is now in the Top 100 for boys--for whom directional names are a real trend-- but we won't be surprised to see more and more little lady Eastons arriving.
  3. Andre

      French and Portuguese variation of Andrew
    • Meaning:

      "strong and manly"
