Shirley Povich, sportswriter and father of Maury: Shirley Povich - Wikipedia

The popularity of the novel Shirley by Charlotte Bronte led to Shirley’s becoming a woman’s name. The title character was given the name that her father had intended to give a son. Before the publication of the novel, Shirley was a last name and an uncommon - but distinctly male - first name and an unusual name for a woman.
