That’s kind of dope more dads should pass on their names to daughters.. baby girl named Greg would have incredible aura

I’m in the same boat. His middle name is my first. Which I like, bc I’ve never met anyone with my name, much less a girl, and I do get mistaken for a boy in emails a lot. But I mean. I like that my name means something too

It’s only cool bc the name is so rare and has a unique-ish origin that most ppl assume it’s gender neutral or that my parents made it up lmao. If it was something more noticeably masculine I probably would have changed my name on my 18th bday

(I know of a handful of men with my name but I’ve never personally met anyone, pretty unique I guess)
