I met someone when I was younger named Dallas and I always thought it was a really cool name. I really like it for a girl or a boy. Unfortunately, I used to live in Dallas which makes it a little dorky I think. I wouldn't be naming them after the city...I just like the name. Just wondering what some of your opinions are of the name.

Thanks!

I like Dallas. A friend of mine who is also pregnant is going to name her baby Dallas regardless of sex. I'm not from US, so the name is more original in my country as its not a geographical location!!

I don't think it's "dorky" because you used to live in Dallas ... I think that actually makes more sense that you actually have a connection to the place rather than just liking the name (even though I know you wouldn't be using it after the city specifically, but many might assume so). Just an added bonus, in my opinion. HTH!

My great great grandmother was Joanah (or Joana?)Dallas. And, there was another family member with the middle name Dallas, too, but a male. I like it!

It's okay. I prefer it on a boy.

I like the idea of Dallas ( and I am a Texan girl... ;)) but I wouldn't use it because I knew a boy named Dallas that wasn't very nice ;) HOWEVER, if you love it use it!!!
