I'd agree about it being a male name, just started reading a book where the character given this name is a negro. However there's no accounting for parents taste!! I knew a man whose parents gave him the name Mary after his first Christian name. |

Wasn't one of the boys in 'Seven Brides for Seven Brothers' called Eaphraim? It is a name from the Bible, as far as I know, but it's definitely a boys name! |
