Question

Would Shane be a boy or girls name?

Answer 1

Normally a boy's name, but I actually like it as a girl's name now that you mention it...there are a lot of boys names that girls have nowadays.

Answer 2

boy, but it would be awesome as a girls name!!! just add a Y!!!

and make the middle name girly:

Shayne Lynn

Shayne Elizabeth

Shayne Renee

boy for Shane.

Keeping in the same area for a girl I would think about Shalyn, Shanetta, Shanel.

Answer 7

Boy

Answer 8

Shane for a boy, Shayne or Sheyne for a girl.

Answer 9

My son is Shaun and I've thought of Shane before, so to me, it's a boy's name.

But so what, with so many girls named Alex and Dylan and Bob (yes, I do know a girl named Bob), I wouldn't be surprised to find a girl named Shane.

It's typically a boy's name, but can be a girl's name.  When I was trying to think of a girl named Shane, I thought of the movie "Some Kind of Wonderful".  Her name is spelled "Shayne", though.

Answer 24

Shane is a boy's name. But Shawn is both a boy's and a girl's name. Shana would be a good alternative to Shane for a girl.
