Knightley for a girl?

I just saw this on fb. Someone named their little girl Knightley. Thoughts?

I think a part of my heart just died. NOOOOO!!! This is a surname. I associate it with Mr. Knightley in Emma. Men then and now are sometimes called by their surname but they still have a first name. If I have to picture anyone being called Knightley it's a man. But I wouldn't say it should be anyone's actual first name.

Oh my! No, just no. That's not good for a little girl. Maybe for a pug or a bull mastiff.

Knightley is pretty terrible for a girl. I wonder if they are big fans of Keira?

I always dislike random surnames turned FNs. This one is especially dreadful.

Yes Yes

He is so do-able, I can't imagine giving a girl this name.
