Well, its not a recent one, but my sister's friend had a baby about 3 months ago and named her Tylah. Not sure what the middle name is. She joins Jordan May.

Personally I don't find anything remotely feminine about these names, especially Tylah (and I can't stand the spelling).

I do prefer Jordan for a male however.

makes me think of Twyla (like Twyla Tharp). Not a fan of either. I also dislike Jordan on a girl (not as bad on a boy).

I actually kind of like Tylah...it's growing on me. I'm not usually a fan of the "y" spellings (since it has become so popular), but I like this. Jordan I have heard for boys and girls. It doesn't bother me and I do prefer this spelling. It makes it a bit softer with May next to it.

Jordan is all boy to me too, as is Tyler. Tylah is awful.

Not sure about Tylah. It looks like someone tried to femininise Tyler. It doesn't quite work. I do like Tyler for a boy though. Taylor would work better for a girl.

I have to admit that I do quite like Jordyn (this spelling only) for a girl. Jordan does seem more of the boy's spelling but I don't like this name for a boy. May is pretty though.
