Thoughts on this name....better for boy or girl?
I tried a pole to decide on gender and I got a lot of negative feedback about it being the brand of guns, etc. Honestly, this doesn't bother me, and I don't think it prevents its usability.
Thanks!

I slightly prefer it for a boy just because it sounds so masculine. That said I know G/G twins names Remington 'Remy' and Lexington 'Lexi' so I could see it for both :)

Im on the fence...I like Remi for a girl, and I usually like masculine names on girls, but Remington I prefer for a boy.

I know a boy named Remington nn Rem but never knew a girl named Remington. In my opinion, I mostly prefer it on a boy.

I think you can use it for both but i really love Remington for a girl. The nickname Remi is super cute and if i ever have kids i would love to name my daughter Remington.

Thanks guys!
I still find it hard to decide, but I am leaning to a boy. I just don't know about the nn Remi for a boy. I had a dog when I was little named Rembrandt nn Remi, but he was a dog, so the nn was cute. Idk...Selena, I thought Remington and Lexington was a cute idea :)
Just, I've always liked Lexington nn Lex for a boy <3

A girl I know just had a baby girl and her name is Remington Kate, "Remi" for short. Personally, I adore it.
