Someone once explained to me that names heavy in vowels, especially if they end in A is interpreted as feminine.
It happens a lot in spanish, even with people that spanish is their native language sometimes they don't understand/know that a word ending in "a" it isn't always female, and a word ending in "o" isn't always male.
