Skyler Marshal vs. Sky(e) Michelle

My father passed away last year. We’re having a baby this July/August (due July 29) and would love to name our son/daughter after him. Unfortunately, his name was Norman Clyde, and we don’t like either of the names. My father was a sky marshal for the US for many years, so ... I know it’s a stretch, but we were thinking of maybe Skyler Marshal for a boy and Sky(e) Michelle for a girl. What do you think? Is it too out-there or does it work? -Amanda

Fake or unclassy

Sorry to hear about your loss. I think Skye or Skyler is cute on a girl. But I honestly don’t like Skyler on a boy. I think it’s more of a feminine name, at least to me. Good luck!

I think they make great names. I know of a boy named skyler he’s 16 now and the name fits him perfectly.

That’s a really creative way of honoring your father. And I think it works!

I don’t see how it is "unclassy." I asked a simple question on the names. I didn’t say we were definitely going with them; we’re just trying to find another way of honoring him with our child’s name. If you have a better idea, feel free to suggest it!

Both names are nice and a very creative way of honoring your father.What about giving your son or daughter his anitials?

Using initials is a good idea and not something we’d thought of yet. Thank you.

Your welcome I’m glad you like that idea! I’m thinking of doing it for my daughter!

Your child will love the story behind their name, so go for it. Though I do like Skyla Michelle better.

Skylar/Skyler has always sounded boyish to me, so I don’t see any problem for using it on a boy.
