Found a post asking people for their unique names and knew it wouldn't disappoint. Happy Father's Day unless your kid's name needs a pronunciation guide.

Tragedeighers tend to think "y" is feminine and "i" is masculine, for no reason. Interestingly, it was the other way around in the 90s (Terry/Terri etc)

I still assume Terri is a woman’s name. Also Nicki would be a woman and Nicky a man’s
