Re: Unisex Names
in reply to a message by Janan
Personally, I like them, but I like traditional ones. Some of the new-age ones sound a bit odd - like a fad, your kid won't enjoy 40 years from now.Regan, Ray, Alex / Alec, Andie, Billie or Bobby, Carmen, Finn, Jackie, Robin, Kim, Sam, Sydney, Val, Wyatt, Wren, and Rickie are some good ones. I also like names that have nicknames of the opposite gender. For example, Frederica going by Freddie, or Elynne using Eddie. It allows the user to have a fancy girlish name, but also a boyish one if they choose. When you're naming a baby you never know what they'll grow up to be / like. Personally, names with lots of nicknames - Alex, Elizabeth, Micheal, etc - are best, because the kid gets to grow up and 'pick' their own name. It's also good if they're trans - they can easily make their name masculine / feminine without legally changing it right away.
