P.s if you're saying this is a new thing, it's not. Logan has always been a gender-neutral name.
And there are even women in their 40's with this name.

In 2018, 3 is the most common age for an American (U.S.) Logan who is registered male with the Social Security Administration. It is the 253rd most common male first name for living U.S. citizens.

In 2018, 14 is the most common age for an American (U.S.) Logan who is registered female with the Social Security Administration. It is the 1, 470th most common female first name for living U.S. citizens.

Male names are being used for females because they can be. Once taken over by a majority of the female population, the once strong, masculine name no longer is strong or masculine. Example: Ashley, Madison, Taylor, Loren, Riley, Courtney, Bailey, Sydney, Leslie, Blair, Lindsey, Addison, Avery, Sandy. I could go on. My point is, while it may seem cute, unique and/or trendy to call your daughter Logan, James, Wyatt or any other male name, it's not. Why don't we start naming our sons Rose, Mary or Elizabeth? No? That's because "A boy named Sue" is a life long curse that most parents would never saddle their sons with. Just because girls can use most boy names doesn't mean you should. There are so many beautiful, strong, unique female names to choose from. Please leave the boys names alone.

This name jumped thirteen positions to #5 in 2017, probably due to the release of the movie Logan early that year.

I like Logan for both a girl or a boy!

Logan for a girls' name.

Logan is a boy name, people.

People, I was named Logan and that does not bring me down! There are plenty of girls named Logan! It is unisex!

If this name is common that is a surprise to me. It seemed that for a few years 90% of babies born both girls and boys were named Jayden. I have never known any Logan. But I think it may be that perfect balance between unique, but not over used, like Mary was in the mid 1900's.

Considering that the height of popularity for this name for girls was in 1996 at 257, while for boys it was 42 that same year, I’m going to have to agree with the people that say this is a boys name. To me the “gan” sound is just to masculine for a girl.

Actually, in 1994 there were 879 girls named Logan, which is a clearly larger number than 257.

Hi. My name is Logan and I'm a girl. Most people think it's for a boy but now it's on the girl's side of the baby book so now other girls have this name too.
