314.0. "Boys or Girls ? " by LAVA::LALLI (Didier - ADG-Europe Valbonne ext. 5874) Tue Oct 25 1988 11:59

	I need some help for my futur-nephew who is suppose to come up
	soon. The parents want to call him/her :

		Gillian
		Jillian
		
	But as they are French, they are not sure if those names are for
	boys or girls.

	May somebody help us ?

	Didier.

    I've only known a couple of Jillians and they were both female also.
    
314.3Jillian is a girl's nameGRECO::MOREAUTue Oct 25 1988 18:075
    I am planning to name my baby (if it is a girl) Jillian.  I also
    have only heard of it in the female sense.
    
    I didn't know it was French either.  Now I know!
    
314.4Not a French name ...LAVA::LALLIDidier - ADG-Europe Valbonne ext. 5874Wed Oct 26 1988 05:419
    No no, it's not a French name at all. But we found it in a French book
    of babynames, classified with boys names (?), but as we had a doubt, I
    wanted to ask the question to the English-speaking persons you were.

    Thanx to all of you, I'll tell them to find as soon as possible another
    boys name :-).
