I know a little boy named Payton, but I think it would be a nice name for a girl, too.

I know a girl named Payton and I don't know any men named Payton... it sounds like a feminine name.

Can be either. One of my son's friends names is Payton..of course he's a boy. But a friend of mine named her daughter Payton Rose.

Personaly, I think of it as a boys names. According to http://babynamewizard.com/namevoyager/lnv0105.html more parents named boys Payton then they do girls.

I can go both ways...Just add a middle name which distinguishes the first ie: Payton Nicole, or Payton Alexander, see the change in sound...
