The use of surnames as first names plus the names with seemingly with no gender. Working in the local library, I come across names such as McKenzie, Ramsey, Sheridan. Often I guess mixed up when I have no idea as to the gender of the child. One man told me that McKenzie would drop by to pick up a book. "Oh tell him to drop by then." "Sorry, but McKenzie is a girl." Oh vey, Edna - Ottawa
