It's not a girl's name. The equivalent girl's name is Adrienne

Just remembered, I work with an Adriana! There's that, too.

Bryn - its Welsh and considered unisex - I often see girls spelling Brynn

Never heard of a girl named Ezra. I do know a woman named Azra, however.

A friend has a grand-daughter named Ezra. I think it's kind of odd, b/c my daughter (about the same age as this Ezra's mother) has a male friend named Ezra. Likewise, my cousin had a male dog named Riley that I knew long before that name became popular for girls. I always expect little "Riley" to be a boy, and often, she's a girl! I know a Quinn of each sex as well.

I didn't say it was....I was replying to someone that saying it was a feminine name.
