| | | This isn't really about a play on words for a name, but have you noticed that some football players (men) have names like Stacy, Kelly, and Tracey. No one will make fun of them because they all weight 300 pounds, they don't have necks and their forearms are as big around as my waist. Are their parents setting them up to be football players or professional wrestlers? I ask this because the only guys I know named Stacy, Kelly and Tracey are football players and it seems to me that if I ran into a scrawny boy named Kelly I'd beat the crap out of him just for the hell of it.
So my question is this: if you have a boy, why give him a girl's name? Do you want him to 1) get beat up on a regular basis, or 2) play football?
Addendum: There are two male country-western singers names Tracy (Lawrence and Byrd) but they both may have played football in high school.

Take the song by the man in black. Didn't he name his son Sue?
(I know one Tracy and he stands 6'7 and weights close to 300 pounds. )

Johnny Cash had a song " A Boy Named Sue" (based on a Shel Silverstein poem) but his own kids are named Rosanne, Kathy, Cindy, Tara and Johnny Carter Cash.

Given that this is country and western we are discussing, that could make for some funny song lyrics
gender bending meets rural culture

| | | No; sorry for not making that clear. Johnny Cash has four girls and one boy (Johnny Carter Cash).
