Yeah, I'm female, but my mom purposefully gave her girls gender neutral names, well sorta, that was the plan. My sister is Jamie Lee. My middle name is very girly, Dyanne. Courtney, though, was my mom's uncle's name, when Courtney was a guy's name. When it started to be a girls name and went both ways still mom picked it. I do get a lot of Mr.... stuff, though. My sister's dog lisence keep being made out to James Lee Wells. The city told her it didn't use nicknames... It was funny. The barbie collector gets "Jamie" and the model building, militaria collecting tomboy gets "Courtney". Life is stranger than fiction.
I wondered when people would figure it out. I've always used my initials to keep down confusion with Unc as a kid and it stuck. It's fun to see how long it takes online. How obvious was it, Eric? What was the giveaway?
