I disagree that gender isn't mostly a social construct, but I agree with you that I'd be very sad to live in a world where all names were unisex. Why? Because there is nothing inherently wrong with being feminine. Or being masculine. This trend of using male names on girls seems to me to be another way of devaluing femininity and devaluing women/girls in general. A woman or girl does not need to be masculine or have a masculine name to have worth. Femininity should be equal to masculinity. And that should remain true whether or not a woman is masculine or a man is feminine. If that makes any sense lol
