What do you think of the names Frank Mikell, it was my grandpa's name, or Franklyn Marie (for a girl)?

My niece is named after my grandmother. For a girl, why not Marie Franklyn? It would still honor him while saving her from the burden of being mistaken for a boy all of her life (at least on mailings, health insurance, etc). If you want some form of "Mikell" for a girl, why not Michelle Franklyn?
For a boy, that sounds fine as a first name.

I think Franky Marie is more cute for a girl. Franklyn is to manly for a girl. Frank mikell is fine for a boy i named my son after his grandpa. It's your child name him or her what ever you want. Have fun being parents and congratulations...

I named my son after my grandfather. What about Frances Michelle? Franklyn is more masculine i think and Marie is just over used in my opinion. Or try looking for the names in different languages.

Franklyn for a girl I think is a NO,NO .Brooklyn Nicole sounds good . If you want the Franklyn name at least call her Fran middle name Lynn . Sorry people will tease her even though you want her to have his name .

It doesn't matter what any of us think. It is your child. Just bear in mind that your child has to carry this name around. As long as you are not choosing a name that could be gender-confusing, or a name that other children could tease the child over, or a name that is difficult to pronounce or spell, you should be fine. Whatever your husband and you decide on should be fine. Trust yourselves. You will pick the right name.

i love the name Franklin for a boy, but i think it is a difficult name for a girl. Was your grandfather Francis? Frances is the feminine of that, and Frankie would be a cute nickname for a girl.

I am not a huge fan of the name Frank, but I am just some random person. If you 2 like it, that is all that matters.
Franklyn is kinda cute. :) You can call her Frankie.

The boy's name is fine but the girl's will cause her problems because it sounds like a man's name. How about Francine, Frances or Francesca?
