[Opinions] Maverick for a girl? (m)
I really love this name, but I think it sounds much more feminine than masculine. Maybe with the nn Mave?
Combos I like with maverick are:
Sydney Maverick
Maverick Lara
Maverick Charlotte
Maverick Elizabeth

Sorry but I think its still much too masculine sounding. I don't care for it on a girl at all. As far as your combos, I think Sydney Maverick sounds the nicest, but Sidney Maverick would be better on a boy.
No... sorry. To me, it's absolutely unfeminine. "Maverick Charlotte" kind of makes me want to laugh. Besides, the word refers to cattle -- which on a boy is cowboyish, but on a woman I can't help thinking: cow.
I'm interested to see if others agree with you about it seeming "feminine."

What's wrong with Maeve?
Nothing....
...but I prefer the 'av' sounding to the 'ave' sounding.

Then you should've said you like "Mav", not "Mave" as the latter is pronounced with a long A.

I like it, but I would be worried about the girl who bears this name in a world full of Ashleys, Sarahs, Britneys, and Katies. Oh, how I wish Maverick would be more accepted!
So, unless you mean to start a new trend, I would keep it as a middle name.

Maverick?
I agree with Heather. I dislike this name on either a boy or a girl. :-(

WAY too masculine to be used on a girl in my opinion! It just doesnt have a pretty sound to it at all.
Actually I could see it working on a girl! I woul'd never use it ever though for either gender.
if I had to pick:
Maverick Elizabeth

No, I'm pronouncing it like 'have.' I don't really know, but it just sounds like a girl's name to me.
Don't do this to your daughter. A maverick is a lost cow. Do you really want to name your daughter after a bovine?
It ends in Rick. That could never sound feminine.
I like Maverick Lara, actually.
The only one I know is a little boy. I'm not crazy about the name, but it has a certain appeal. This boy's sibset is (age-order):
Jordan (f)
Coral (f)
Gavin (m)
Ryann (f, sp. uncertain) and Maverick (m): twins

NO WAY! I think it's horrible for a girl.

I dont like Maverick. I really like Mave though. Out of those combos I like Sydney Maverick the best. I think its a good combo and I really like Sydney.
