It sounds feminine to me. Probably because I only know of the singer. I actually like this name and I've noticed that I toss it around quite a bit when coming up with combos. I think it has a nice sound to it. The only thing that throws me off is that it's such a word name. I feel like other people would find it cheesy and think, "oh you're naming your kid
Jewel, like a jewel is pretty precious and your child...oh yes I get it *rolls eyes*" I feel like others who aren't used to hearing it as a name wouldn't think much differently if I actually named my child
Precious.
Haha, okay maybe that's just me over analyzing :P
