    Well, since I consider the name Brooklyn a joining of the name Brook Lynn I would say girl. Mostly, though, I think of the small town in SE Michigan where Michigan International Speedway is located.

    How 'bout neither?

    Brooklyn is a grey, gritty borough of NYC.

    If demons possess you and force you to saddle an unsuspecting child with it, I would assume female since, as a boy's name it doesn't even appear in the top 1000 last year while Brooklyn and Brooklynn both make the list.

    I love it on a boy! Like Brooklyn Beckham (David Beckham's son). I know it's more commonly a girl's name now it's kinda played out for a girl for me.

    Well it is a unisex name so can be for both but I think it's more of a girls name like Brooke is more of a girls name but is a unisex name.

    Hope I helped

    It's unisex. Brooke is unisex and so is Lyn.

    I think it's much nicer on a boy than a girl. Just sounds like another Lyn chav/hick name.

    Sounds quite chic on a boy

    I have never met a guy with that name. I think its more for a girl.
