Ah, Rain, or its derivities have always been a girl's name to me. But that might be a generational thing. My cousin also named one of her boys keil, sounds like kyle. And their other daughter Cayleigh, which is well, spelled the way it sounds. Smile. Sometimes I have a hard time pronouncing my students names, and have several from other countries so that adds to the confusion and the mix, smile. Shelley L.

What's in a name? These days names don't seem to indicate gender, although I do get confused. My daughter's dog is female but is named Charley. They named my granddaughter Ryen, which I always thought os as a boy's name, even though they spelled it with an e instead of an a to distinguish it. Fortunately, she looks like a girl; I hope she stays that way. smile G.Cindy --- Rick Roderick <rickrod@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Shelley, > > A couple of people called Angus Agnes.
