What do you think of the name Schuyler?

Question

For a girl, I mean.

Answer 1

sorry but i hate it!!!

it sounds like a dogs name..

but i agree with the person above me that said Skye was pretty

Answer 2

I love it and that's how I like it spelled too. Skylar is too cutesey.

Answer 3

I don't know how to pronounce it.  If it is pronounced SKYLER than i would spell it Skylar.  That is a cute name for a girl.  Skye is also cute.

Answer 4

First, thank you for spelling the name correctly. This is a lovely name for a girl. I know a Schuyler and she loves her name. She goes by Skye

Answer 5

I like this spelling and actually kind of prefer it.

Answer 6

I like it, but spelled differently. People often mispronounce this variation as shy-ler.

Answer 7

Good grief, it's awful.

It sounds like a lifetime of explaining how to pronounce the name, as well as correcting misspellings of it.

Don't do this to your child.  The child will grow up to resent you greatly for saddling them with an impossible name.

Answer 8

The problem with the name is that no teacher will be able to pronounce or spell it.  Also, people with uncommon names are sometimes passed over for jobs just because they seem "less classy" than applicants with "normal" names.  I just read that in a book last week.

Answer 9

I love it.  My cousin is named Schuyler, it means scholar.  She loves her name.  Her middle name is Grey, which is a family name.  Schuyler Grey fits her well, she is smart, well-spoken, polite, and very mature for her age.  Great choice, I love it!

Answer 10

I would like it better if it was spelled Skylar that way they could spell it Sky as a nickname

Answer 11

Aggressive looking.

Answer 12

Schuyler is a great name.  I would spell it just as you have.  I think it is an interesting uncommon yet elegant name.

Answer 13

Horrid for a girl. It's masculine and ugly.

Save it for a boy.

Answer 14

I think you should go with just plain Skye for a girl... Schuyler sounds too masculine.

Answer 15

No, it's a boy's name.  I don't like it for a boy either, but that's just my opinion.  

Answer 16

i would give that name that name to a boy but i would say skye is better

Answer 17

I like Skylar, spelled that way, I think they would pronounce the other spelling SHOE LER! Pretty name but use the Skylar spelling!

Answer 18

Schuyler is a boy's name. It's masculine.

Answer 19

I love the name Skye (you could mix it up and spell it Skai or something?) But Schuyler sounds kinda boyish to me.

Answer 20

Dear lord no.

Answer 21

Nope, not so much.

Answer 22

I like it, I know a couple that named their daughter that, and used that spelling. However, a lot of people would pronounce it Sk-oo-ler, so you'd be forever correcting people. But still, it's pretty.
