I used to LOVE this name, but now a certain person *ahem, Hilton* has ruined it for all of us. I wouldn't even name my dog this name, just because I'd hate to give a nod to the obnoxious heiress.

(In response to comment that the fact that'so many girls are so named it is ignorance on the part of parents i'll like to say that) 'It is just another name. There is no longer any formal demarcation concerning gender based names. Girls and boys are called Danielle, Jade, Lorrain, Stacy, Noel etc. Why is It'such an issue where Paris is concerned. Parents should be able to choose even'that much for their child'.

I am a female named Paris and I can honestly say I highly dislike the name Paris for a girl. However, I absolutely love the name Paris for a male, this is due to the brave Paris of Troy! I don't go by the name Paris anymore, I now go by Al❤️xandros. This is another name that was given'to the great Paris of mythology. Al❤️xandros also suits my ideal of a female having a male name. For e.g a female having the name Billie. Everyone around me calls me Al❤️xandros, and I'm more than happy. People may judge me for going by the name Al❤️xandros, however I grew large hatred for the name Paris for a female due to the association with the city as well as famous females in which have the name Paris. I would not recommend naming your female Paris as kids now days seem to find humour to the name.. not a fun schooling! Paris for a male however is such a perfect name! -Al❤️xandros :)

I love the name and just because there is a celebrity whom people have come to hate because of the media doesnt mean i cant name my daughter that. Its beautiful, classy, and its perfect. It is a boys name, however names have become unisex now and its now both. Paris sounds better for a girl to me atleast anyways.

I do think Paris is a nice name. As far as the Paris Hilton convos go, she'll be less talked about in a few years. If I ever have a baby girl, that will probably be her name too. I also like the fact that It's not too common. Paris would sound funny for a boys name..in my opinion.

I was born in the 70s, and I'must have been one of the first Paris' ever. i've never met anyone else with the name, with the dubious exception of a girl who used it as her "stripper name". Ugh!! With that exception, I always loved my name and was proud of my name up until Paris Hilton came along. Now, when I tell people my name, they always making comments. It's embarrassing to share my unique name with a world famous moron. So It's not as cool now, but It's still a beautiful name. Too bad It's now just another name for tastelessness.

Yes my name is Patricia... I Was born in 1982 and will be 37 years old Tommorrow.. I have always gone by either Tricia or Trish, and the like the girl above I too despise when people try to call me "Pat" or "Patty", sometimes I will tell people a zillion times that I do not go by "pat" or "Patty" and they just dont seem to get it... I like the name Patricia and I like the nicknames Tricia or Trish, but I often wish my Full name was "Tricia/Trisha" so people wouldnt try to call me Pat....truthfully I will never understand why people assume you go by Pat because your name is Patricia...and I think its rudeto shorten someones name without asking... Id rather be called Patricia then Pat or Patty, but if you dont know what nick someone goes by I think its best to ask....

The facts are wrong about the number of people in the US with this name only being born in 1990 since I have this name and was born in 1989. The correct pronunciation is R-e-on.

Such a strong and handsome name! Our son is Paris and he was named before we ever heard of Paris Hilton. We associated it with the Prince Paris (who kidnapped Helen of Troy). Besides, he is one of those kids who will bring a positive association with the name, as I'm sure other 'Paris's' are doing all around the globe! And if It's good enough for Pierce Brosnan...

It is a NAME. Why are you people arguing over a name❤️ "its a boys name," " no its a girls name!!" GEEEZ, can't you guys agree that the name PARIS is a unisex name❤️ People are deciding not to name their child PARIS because of one person, paris hilton. Paris is a pretty name, and if somebody is going to judge somebody else because of a name, that relates to Paris Hilton, that is pathetic, and their own problem. Paris Hilton shouldn't even be a factor in deciding a baby's name. She is just a girl that the media has nothing better to do than bag her. My name is PARIS. And my friends don't relate Paris Hilton to me. In 10 years nobody will hear from Paris HILTON again, so whats the problem❤️

I love the name for a boy as it is a boy's name thanks to the greek mythical story. I don't like it as much for girls as it is more of a place name and due to P. Hilton ruining it. I would use it for a boy if anything. You can always say to the ignoramuses that actually It's a boy's name not girl's. Wink, wink, smirk, that will shut them up! Saying that, whether you are a girl or boy Paris, enjoy your name! :)
