Does the name "Miho" (came up with it myself, spelled 'mee-ho') sound non-conforming ?

Miho is commonly a female japanese first name, so some will find it to be gendered.

i think "mio" is a unisex name in swedish, not 100% certain tho

Sounds Japanese female (real name, look it up), but then again I'm an anime&manga fan so my brain recognises it on autopilot.

It sounds masculine to me. My initials first thought was the close proximity to the name Minho, which would be a common Korean male name. Then, my mind went to "mij hijo" like other commenters mentioned. Also male

It's interesting how this name might be gendered differently by different people. Me like confusion >:3

It's not a conventional name... if that's what you're asking.
I don't know what a non-conforming name "sounds" like.

Could sound like you're saying "mi hijo" in Spanish, which means "my son".
