    Henley also brings to mind Don Henley, so maybe that’s the slightly masculine vibe?

    Friends of mine are expecting a baby boy to be named Henley…first I’d heard of it. Everyone hears it as either “Henry” or as a kind of shirt. Strikes me as kind of feminine too.

      I’m surprised they’re using it for a boy, too. But Henley sounds more masculine than Kenley or Tenley. Maybe because I’ve never met one …

      And yes, there is a “shirt” vibe to Henley, isn’t there? LOL!

    I’ve noticed a few Baylens/Baylins in the Aussie notices.

    “Our perceptions of popularity are highly flawed” – Agreed.
    One Kiwi recently discounted Georgia/Jorja for being too overused so what did some fellow posters from NZ suggest along the lines of “cute, feminine and NOT too popular girl names”? – Charlotte, Ruby and Amelia. All top ten names.

    A Breaker would get consistent flatulent jokes here.

    Celebrity baby blog reports that Ellie and Elfie were two of the other names on Heidi’s short list. Here’s the link: http://celebrity-babies.com/2010/02/12/new-baby-looked-like-a-lou-says-heidi-klum/#more-83575
