It's for both. My grandfather, great-grandfather, and great-great-grandfather were all named Laurie. And now I am, and I'm a female. So it's versatile, just like Sasha is.

My name is Laurie Mary. I love my name and it's unique spelling since most people that I have encountered with the same name spell it Lori. i have never met a boy named Laurie in my life. i totally disagree and think Laurie is 100% a girl name.
