Traditional boys' names that are more popular for girls.

In my current novel, I thought it would be funny if my hero was born with a more feminine name (something traditional for boys way back when, but is more popular as a girls' name now.) Not easy to do.

But I found a list due to my own meanderings around the web and through baby name books. See the following:

Ashley
Jocelyn
Leslie
Shannon
Valerie

My hero's referred to as "Colton" through the story, and I want him to finally tell the heroine his birth name at the very end. I want something girly...But what?

Would love to hear comments and suggestions!
