   My name is Francise, I was named after my grandmother, as a child my father would always call me Frankie he would say it was short for Frankenstein, I shortened my name to Frankie I’m a 52 year old female, with grandchildren my friends tell me, they say it’s pretty cool they have a female friend named Frankie.

   I am 62 years old female named Frankie. I was to be named after my grandmother Francis. But my mom didn’t like my father’s mother so she named me Frankie. I was teased as a kid. They called me Frankenstein or Frankfurter. My close friend gave me the nickname Spanky or Spank. As I got older my name Frankie had a different twist of respect. It was a sexy name for a female. The song Frankie and Johnny was always a song brought up in conversation. Still today people would ask me did my mom want a boy, well my oldest sister is name Antoinette and we call her “Toni” ?

   We chose the name Frances “Frankie” Eleanor after my grandmother. We were going to name her Amy after her dad’s late mom, but she just felt more like a Frankie – she’s definitely got spunk. And we love that she can go by the classic, elegant Frances if/when she wants.

   Do you think this name is too boy-ish and that baby girl will get made fun of ?

     Speaking as a 14 year old girl named Francesca (Frankie), the answer is no. I have never once been made fun of for having a “too boy-ish” name. People have thought it was an interesting name before, but I have never been made fun of it. I’ve actually been complimented many times on how cool of a name it is for a girl, and I personally agree. Please don’t hesitate to name your daughter Frankie because it’s considered a “boy name.” Frankie is a great name for any little girl out there.

     I’m not too sure, I’m 14 years old and my name is Frankie, I didn’t mind it as a child but once I hit 10 and started to make friends online, people started making fun of my name saying it was a guys name. And it wasn’t helping with the way my voice is, I don’t have a girly girl voice, it’s more raspy like and people automatically assume I’m a guy. I don’t think that anyone should name their daughter ‘Frankie’ because I personally am not a fan of it and I could just image how evil the future teenagers will be. Unless you’re from a nice and caring community then you shouldn’t name your daughter Frankie. But it is your choice.

   I chose the name Frankie Mae after both of her maternal great, great grandmothers. My husband’s Gaga (Frankie) helped raise him and my maternal great grandmother Beatrice Mae was a beautiful, Godly woman worthy of a namesake, plus they sounded beautiful together to us!
