Wheeew! At least I was not that wrong!!
By the way, there is no way that you could ever be confused with Spanish
names. Both male and female names are very well defined. However, you
could have a man called Luis Maria (Maria is feminine), but the gender
is determined by the first name.
My sister-in-law is Maria José (José is masculine) but then you can
tell she's a woman by her first name. BTW we just call her Majo :-)
Many names denote gender by either an "o" or an "a" at the end, ie Mario
for male and Maria for female, Juan and Juana, Patricio and Patricia and
so on.
Anyways, my lunch hour is over and I have to get back to work!

Pat is short for Patrick (male) and Patricia (Female). There may be others.
Sam, female is Samantha as opposed to male Samuel. In the UK Tracy is
feminine and I have never heard of a male Stacey either. In the USA it could
well be derivatives of non English names I don't know.

Oops! it must be my deficient knowledge of the English language!
I was ALWAYS under the impresion that you were a woman, but now, I just
looked you up on Linkedin and saw your picture.
There are a zillion female Tracy, but you appear at the bottom. And yes,
you do have a beard!
You see, I always get confused with some english names that could be
both female or male. (Stacey, Tracy, Pat,Sam, etc)
