Typically a boy’s name (save for the queen, Drew Barrymore), Drew is quite popular for little fellas. CharlieĬharlie has long been thought of as the nickname for Charles, but recently, it’s been a popular nickname for the name Charlotte. But parents really like it for all their little ones. Once the Beckhams named their only daughter Harper, it immediately shot up in popularity for girls, which checks out. But since Kelly Clarkson decided to call her daughter River, it’s slowly increasing in popularity elsewhere too. One of the most famous Rivers-actor River Phoenix-gave this name a traditionally male association. Londonīecoming more popular for girls for now, London is still a perfectly pleasant name, honoring a beautiful British city (duh).

We have to praise Reese Witherspoon’s mother for giving her this name and putting it on the map for all of us to reuse.Ī post shared by Kyle Richards Umansky 67. This has English origins and came about from the phrase “hallow stone.” Super trendy too, with some major fashion vibes to go with it. This one means “of the ash tree.” So, extra cool. Joe may seem like a set-in-stone guy’s name, but drop the “e” and you’ve got a flexible name with a Little Women cosign to back it up. This one has Japanese origins and translates to “beautiful.” 36. RumiĪnother Yoncé-approved name here ’cause taste is taste. This Old English name actually means “friend,” and we def love that too. Hollisĭon’t even front-how delightful does it sound to be a “dweller at the holly trees”?! That’s bliss, baby. This is actually a derivative of the name Nicholas (who knew?) and means “people of victory.” Colins everywhere have essentially won at life, I guess. In case you haven’t caught on yet, the whole surname as a first name thing sounds suuuper chic. Here’s a solid unisex name for sure that means “sea dweller.” Again with the water theme!!Ī post shared by aubrey plaza 31. This is a Welsh name meaning “son of Madoc.” The name was popularized quite a bit when Angelina Jolie made it a thing with her oldest child Maddox. Nikki, Nicky…there are countless possibilities. Now, this has totally been deemed a girl’s name over the years, but honestly, changing the spelling opens a whole bunch of doors. Here’s an Irish unisex name that means “vigilant.” 22.

Not only does this name have 50,000 song mentions (approximately), but it’s also Hebrew for “the Lord exists.” This name is a solid way to set the tone for a kid’s life. Also, if you watch Stranger Things, you’ll know it’s not just for boys. It means “greatest,” which is probably why it’s remained a staple for generations. This name has French and Latin origins (v fancy) and means “oarsman.” 18. Does that change the fact that it’s still somehow chic AF? No. Ramseyĭoes this name mean “wild garlic”? Yes. Who reads baby-name books when Google exists, anyway? Sorry to all baby-name book writers out there, but we have all the unisex baby names you need below.Ī post shared by Channing Tatum 16. Yes, this is your cue to toss those outdated color coded baby-name books that your mom dusted off from storage. (Psst, it’ll be hard to choose because we’re obsessed with all of them.) Some have historically been used for a particular gender, and others have always been used for their gender-neutral potential.

To make the process easier, we rounded up 100 gender-neutral baby names that’ll be perfect for your future angel on earth-no matter their gender. If you have a partner, it’s already tough enough to agree on names you both like-I loved one name, my husband loved another, and we couldn’t agree on either-much less come up with something that doesn’t feel overused, dated, or potentially inauthentic for your little one in the future. But if you don’t want to think about whether or not your bundle of joy’s name is viewed as more feminine or masculine (f*ck those norms, really), then you’ve come to the right place. To be fair, you can name a human baby whatever name you want, no matter the sex they’re assigned at birth. There’s already so much stress involved in naming your sweet bb offspring, and trying to stick with “traditional” male and female names just makes it harder. And that, naturally, includes baby names. ICYMI, it’s 2022-and more so than ever, people are engaging in open conversations about gender fluidity and actively working to break the very tired male-female binary.
