I can see this name as unisex. HEAR ME OUT!Moss' past use as a Jewish name is without a doubt, 100% masculine (though it seems to be archaic even in that aspect - a Jewish boy today, especially in the U.S. where I am, would more likely be named Moses or Moshe). But as an English-language name, it can either be derived from Moses (which was its medieval use), or from the plant: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moss#/media/File:Tionesta-ac-moss2.jpg.It's a carpet plant, flowerless, but still surprisingly beautiful. And since English does not have gendered nouns, just about every name from nature (other than perhaps the flowers) can be considered unisex.Yes, Moss is one letter off from Ross, but the vowel sound is also quite similar to Maud / Maude, a feminine name from the Middle Ages. I think Moss can work as a feminine name, provided it's paired with a very feminine middle name (otherwise it'll look a little "tryhard" and like a political statement to reject the feminine).
This name is nice, like the plant.
Absolutely delightful name! The plant is just as joyful. I love word names.
One of the best things to stare at on the ground, a delight and an honor it would be to bear this name.
I think it's badass.
I thought this was a girl's name. Maybe a pet form of Margaret or something? Moss Ella Rose sounds like a good combination.
Uh... just go with Ross. Much better.
I dunno, I kind of like moss (the vegetation that is). Aren't plant names "in" right now? xD
Come on, this is the green stuff found in forests and on sidewalks and stuff. Not a great name for a person, or even a pet, for that matter.
