We are looking for names for our BGG triplets. We have a daughter named [name_f]Scotland[/name_f].
We like more unconventional names and are drawn to place names, word names or similar.
Our main issue is that word names don’t have a gender, and we are worried with names on our list that just hearing the names, you may not be able to tell who is a boy and who is a girl… we get all the time that by seeing our daughters name that the majority of people think she’s a boy.
We have a list of names we like and are curious to see if you all would put the name with a boy or girl. We are also totally up for more suggestions as we are starting the naming process late and don’t have the names we love yet…
[name_u]Fallon[/name_u] - girl (I knew one is probably why)
[name_u]Oakley[/name_u] - either
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] - boy
[name_u]Finch[/name_u] - boy
[name_u]Indigo[/name_u] - girl
[name_f]Emerald[/name_f] - girl
[name_u]Winter[/name_u] - girl
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] - boy
[name_u]Fallon[/name_u] - all girl
[name_u]Oakley[/name_u] - truly unisex, but I prefer it on a girl
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] - all boy
[name_u]Finch[/name_u] - unisex, can see it on either
[name_u]Indigo[/name_u] - all girl
[name_f]Emerald[/name_f] - all girl
[name_u]Winter[/name_u] - all girl
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] - all boy
[name_u]Fallon[/name_u] - Boy
[name_u]Oakley[/name_u] - Both
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] - Both, [name_u]Love[/name_u]
[name_u]Finch[/name_u] - Boy
[name_u]Indigo[/name_u] - Both - on my fave list
[name_f]Emerald[/name_f] - Girl, makes me think of [name_f]Esmeralda[/name_f].
[name_u]Winter[/name_u] - Girl
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] - Boy
For me [name_u]Finch[/name_u] and [name_u]Orion[/name_u] are the only names I couldn’t picture on both genders but doesn’t mean they couldn’t pull it off.
[name_u]Fallon[/name_u] - boy
[name_u]Oakley[/name_u] - either, but I’d assume boy
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] - boy
[name_u]Finch[/name_u] - boy
[name_u]Indigo[/name_u] - boy
[name_f]Emerald[/name_f] - girl
[name_u]Winter[/name_u] - either (I love this on a boy!)
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] - boy
[name_u]Fallon[/name_u] - boy
[name_u]Oakley[/name_u] - either, but leaning male
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] -all boy
[name_u]Finch[/name_u] - either, leaning male
[name_u]Indigo[/name_u] - either
[name_f]Emerald[/name_f] -all girl
[name_u]Winter[/name_u] - girl (I can totally see ‘[name_f]Winnie[/name_f]’ being a girl nickname)
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] -boy
Additional note that there is a young adult series with one of the supporting cast being a female [name_u]Winter[/name_u].
[name_u]Fallon[/name_u] - Girl
[name_u]Oakley[/name_u] - Either? I have a hard time picturing this one on anyone. I just think of Oakland, [name_u]California[/name_u]…
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] - Boy, possibly because it makes me think of [name_m]Atticus[/name_m]?
[name_u]Finch[/name_u] - Boy
[name_u]Indigo[/name_u] - Girl, I actually knew a girl with this name and it was super cool
[name_f]Emerald[/name_f] - Girl
[name_u]Winter[/name_u] - Girl
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] - Boy

Either or
[name_u]Aberdeen[/name_u] Nickname [name_u]Abbie[/name_u] for a girl or [name_u]Dean[/name_u] for a boy.
[name_m]Galloway[/name_m] - I first reaction was male but then I became confused when I realized the first sound is “gal”.
[name_u]Fallon[/name_u] - solidly girl
[name_u]Oakley[/name_u] - boy… but I suppose I wouldn’t be surprised to see it on a girl
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] - solidly boy
[name_u]Finch[/name_u] - boy?
[name_u]Indigo[/name_u] - true 50/50

[name_u]Oakley[/name_u] - Both!
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] - Boy
[name_u]Finch[/name_u] - both!
[name_u]Indigo[/name_u] - Both!
[name_f]Emerald[/name_f] - Girl
[name_u]Winter[/name_u] - both! i see it as truly unisex!
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] - Both
In terms of a sibset with [name_f]Scotland[/name_f] I would lean more to definitely boy for your son, so his name stands out against 3 sisters. Possible options are:
I also like [name_f]Scotland[/name_f], [name_u]Winter[/name_u], [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] and [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] together but do feel that this may fall in to the ‘difficult to know who is a boy’ category.
Anyway I’m sure you will find the perfect names, you’ve got some good choices already!
[name_u]Fallon[/name_u] - either
[name_u]Oakley[/name_u] - boy
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] - boy

[name_u]Oakley[/name_u] - either
