What are some good gender-neutral names?

I think that my partner might be considering changing their name, although I’m not sure. She is gender-questioning (is AFAB & currently identifying with their birth sex but presenting as non-binary) & wishes their name was more gender-neutral. One day, me being me, I asked her what her name would be if she chose it & they said [name_u]Sam[/name_u], only because it was unisex.

Either way, I AM curious about this, unrelated to my girlfriend. :slight_smile:

I know this isn’t what you mean but there are names like [name_u]Sam[/name_u], [name_u]Alex[/name_u], and [name_u]Charlie[/name_u]. Then there are ones like [name_u]True[/name_u], [name_u]River[/name_u], [name_u]Banjo[/name_u]. Id go with a word name for something gender neutral since the others are just gendered both ways. :crazy_face:

I think the most gender neutral are nickname-y names and some word names. It depends on the popularity in your area, though.

River is a nice suggestion, but too similar to the last name. :sweat_smile:
