Hiya! I’m gender fluid, and I’ve been looking for a new name for a while. I was on the beach last night looking up at the Milky [name_m]Way[/name_m] and I realized how much I like the stars/space. (Corny, I know, but hey) what are some of your favorite gender neutral Star/space related names? T
I’m not sure if all of these are typically considered gender neutral but I’ll just list everything I can think of…
[name_f]Star[/name_f]
[name_u]Nova[/name_u]
[name_f]Celeste[/name_f] / [name_f]Celestia[/name_f]
[name_f]Luna[/name_f]
[name_u]Sol[/name_u] / [name_f]Soleil[/name_f]
[name_u]Jupiter[/name_u]
[name_u]Neptune[/name_u]
[name_u]Mars[/name_u]
[name_f]Terra[/name_f]
[name_u]Nebula[/name_u]
[name_u]Sky[/name_u] / [name_u]Skyler[/name_u]
[name_m]Sirius[/name_m]
[name_f]Andromeda[/name_f]
[name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f]
[name_f]Ursa[/name_f]
[name_u]Leo[/name_u]
[name_u]Aries[/name_u]
Cygnus
[name_f]Venus[/name_f]
[name_u]Aster[/name_u]
[name_u]Polaris[/name_u]
[name_u]Mars[/name_u]
[name_u]Nova[/name_u]
[name_u]Nebula[/name_u]
[name_f]Callisto[/name_f]
[name_u]Mercury[/name_u]
[name_f]Moon[/name_f]
[name_u]Sol[/name_u] / [name_u]Solaris[/name_u]
[name_u]Solstice[/name_u]
[name_u]Equinox[/name_u]
[name_u]Jupiter[/name_u]
[name_f]Celestine[/name_f] (used for males and females) / [name_u]Celestin[/name_u]
In my opinion, many of the space names are strongly gendered, unfortunately, but here are few names that I would consider gender neutral.
[name_f]Io[/name_f]
[name_u]Rigel[/name_u]
[name_u]Aster[/name_u]
[name_f]Ceres[/name_f]
[name_m]Leonis[/name_m]
Etamin
[name_u]Sol[/name_u]
[name_m]Sirius[/name_m]
[name_u]Zenith[/name_u] - “the point in the sky or celestial sphere directly above an observer” not directly related to space like the ones above but I think it is a cool name that kind of fits the category.
Otava - my personal favourite. It is a Finnish name though and it means [name_f]Ursa[/name_f] Major/Big [name_m]Dipper[/name_m]
Maybe you can find some inspiration here:
Good luck with your search!
[name_u]Phoenix[/name_u]
[name_u]Aries[/name_u]
[name_u]Leo[/name_u]
[name_u]Orion[/name_u]
[name_u]Oberon[/name_u]
[name_u]Atlas[/name_u]
[name_u]Aquila[/name_u]
Also [name_u]Vesper[/name_u], [name_u]Aster[/name_u], [name_m]Altair[/name_m] and [name_u]Vega[/name_u].
Someone in one of my classes goes by Lunar, which is a cool gender neutral alternative to Luna!
[name_u]Evren[/name_u] (means universe)
[name_u]Nova[/name_u]
[name_u]Stellar[/name_u]
[name_u]Solar[/name_u]
[name_u]Sunny[/name_u]
[name_f]My[/name_f] fave is [name_u]Vesper[/name_u]! That’s my cat’s name
[name_u]Seren[/name_u]
[name_u]Orion[/name_u]
[name_u]Galaxy[/name_u]
[name_f]Andromeda[/name_f]
[name_f]Star[/name_f]
[name_u]Aries[/name_u]
I’ll contribute
[name_m]Kuiper[/name_m] (Kai-per ) after the kuiper belt of asteroids
[name_m]Astrophel[/name_m]
[name_m]Cosmo[/name_m]
They have already been said but I adore [name_u]Vesper[/name_u] and [name_u]Aster[/name_u] as gender neutral names!
[name_u]Aries[/name_u] is my absolute favourite <3
Maybe Léonide, for a gender neutral name after the Leonid meteor shower.
This is interesting to me, I think it is also a Russian word meaning grass that grows back after the grass has been cut, which could have a nature / “new beginning” meaning if you are interested in that
Aster - you could go by Ash
Vesper - love this one!
Phoenix

Nova
Orion
Atlas

Here’s 2 I haven’t seen mentioned yet.
[name_u]Halley[/name_u] - for the comet
[name_m]Zenon[/name_m] - nb lists this as a boy’s name but there’s a female disney character who lived in space with this name.

The rest of the space names I can think of and see in this thread are very gendered to me.
