Gender-neutral names are unisex, meaning you can give them to a girl or a boy.
Nowadays, such practice is very popular, with names like Kennedy or Avery - once known as last names - used as first names and even unisex.
The same with Dana and Leslie; once boys names, nowadays both names are more common as girl names.
Why do people choose gender-neutral names for their babies?
To some, the idea of a non-binary name sounds, modern, fresh, cool, and even unique.
Others want to avoid and prevent gender stereotyping or sexism in the child’s future.
In fact, gender-neutral baby names (also known as androgynous or non-binary names), suitable for both boys and girls are one of the hottest baby-naming trends right now.
That's because non-binary baby names give the children a fresh start and the chance to define their identities freely, as they grow up and mature.
