Peyton is totally a BOYS name! I have always thought of it as a boys name and really didnât hear parents using it for girls until after I named my little boy, Peyton Foster. I am really annoyed with parents using true boys names for their girlsâ¦..it is as if they wished their little girl was a boy.
