Choosing gender neutral names or unisex names can be a powerful and personal way to reject the gender binary and affirm your identity.
When choosing a new name as an adult, it may help to try out a few names with a trusted friend or online before making your decision. Look up what names were popular when you were born (instead of for babies born this year). And make sure the name you choose is appropriate for your cultural background.
Other name sites try to gender even the unisex names, by showing which are more popular for boys and girls over time. This can be interesting info, but here, we keep the names strictly gender-neutral and simply present a list for your consideration.
It can be a challenging process to choose a name, whether it's for yourself, your baby, or a character in your novel. This list of gender neutral names is a great starting point for inspiration.
