Our Grayson is a boy, but have heard many girls named Grayson Aurora: female. Her actual name is female, but we call her Rory, which is unisex avivoca on "Is your LO's name gender neutral?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-los-name-unisex/page/2#post-2469681 Mon, 22 Feb 2016 06:33:00 +0000 avivoca 2469681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @lady baltimore: Hi PawPrints on "Is your LO's name gender neutral?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-los-name-unisex/page/2#post-2469615 Sun, 21 Feb 2016 23:39:47 +0000 PawPrints 2469615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Her name is very female-specific and (as far as I'm aware) also very human-specific. It might make a nice name for a dog though.

DD's name is not gender neutral, but it's not frilly feminine either, I don't think. I tend not to like the more recently trendy unisex names (Taylor, Jordan), but I like names like Kelly and Kit for boys, and would consider James or Michael for a girl.

Both are very traditional male names but I do remember a TV show when I was little had a female character with LO2's name and there are definitely female variations of his name. I have a unisex/masculine name and hated it growing up so I wouldn't ever choose to do the same to my kid. loveisstrange on "Is your LO's name gender neutral?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-los-name-unisex/page/2#post-2468827 Sat, 20 Feb 2016 18:12:55 +0000 loveisstrange 2468827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope.

I'm not sure what the male equivalent would even be, so I'd say it's definitely not gender neutral. Our boy's name would have been Jules ... which would be rather gender neutral. lawbee11 on "Is your LO's name gender neutral?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-los-name-unisex#post-2468811 Sat, 20 Feb 2016 17:41:19 +0000 lawbee11 2468811@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope.

Dd2 is all girl! Totally feminine - @nn@.

I like unisex names but DH was not on board with the ones I picked. Oh well. chopsuey on "Is your LO's name gender neutral?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-los-name-unisex#post-2468800 Sat, 20 Feb 2016 17:22:34 +0000 chopsuey 2468800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DD - more masculine, but unisex.

However, dd2's name originated as a name bestowed upon males during medieval times, so I guess hers is technically unisex. mrsjyw on "Is your LO's name gender neutral?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-los-name-unisex#post-2468793 Sat, 20 Feb 2016 16:59:38 +0000 mrsjyw 2468793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Def more masculine but unisex names for both DSs Mrs. D on "Is your LO's name gender neutral?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-los-name-unisex#post-2468782 Sat, 20 Feb 2016 16:36:43 +0000 Mrs. D 2468782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ No, never met a male Helen.

So yes I think it could be unisex. I don't think Jaren is unisex.

Like if your daughter was named Arianna and it was shortened for example.
