I love typically "boy" names for girls.

[lavander_girl15]

Yes! I thought i was the only one that like unisex names

[msbombtastic]

I love them. I would love "Shane" if I had a girl tbh (hypothetically, idt I'm gonna have kids lol)

[azaelers]

Yessssss at the rise of gender-neutral names

[andisprohi]

meh, I dislike the idea we gotta avoid feminine names ~2 be strong~

+1

Agreed. There's always a tipping point with "unisex" names. Too many girls have them and parents stop giving them to boys. It's just sexism. Ashley went from a boys name, to unisex to just a girls name.

Unisex names usually end up being more popular with just one gender depending on the times.

Emma is always a popular name.

My niece was born in 2017 and was named Audrey (Lynn as a middle name). My nephew was born in 2019 and his name is David (middle name is Joseph). I think l they’re good names.

I love the name Audrey.

[la_petite_singe]

I have a bb niece Audrey too!

[pinkjaffa]

That's my niece's name too. My sister wanted to go with Aubrey, but one of her in laws talked her out of it.

Surprised there aren't any names rhyming with Jaden in the boy column. (I feel like I've encountered / know SO MANY -ayden kids.)

[delleve]

I feel like AYDEN/AIDEN thing was more of a thing in the late 2000's? My sister in law had kids then and they both have those kinda names.

[rhapsodeeinblue]

Hmm now that I think about it, in my experience it's both decades (kids older than 10 as well as under).

[savannah_rose24]

Its still a popular name. I thought of Hayden for a quick second as a baby name, but then I ran into so many kids with -ayden in their names. Plus I have a nephew named Jayden.
