Top 20 Gender-Neutral Names

Choosing a name for your baby isn't a small task. While a name doesn't define who you are as a person, it defines how the world recognize you and it will always follow you, wherever life may take you. Even if the possibilities are technically endless, you may feel like you want to give a more "conventional" name to your kid, something you've heard or seen before. The internet is full of classic names list, but when we thought about the challenge of finding a gender-neutral name, we realized it wasn't as easy.

More and more parents are looking for unisex names

Whether it is for personal convictions or simply because they wanted to pick a name before knowing the gender of their kid.  In fact, there are many reasons to opt for a non-binary name, including not defining your kid's gender with its name and avoiding sexism based on name.

The latter is specifically true in the era of digital communications we're living in, where a name and a picture is everything most people you'll meet will have at first. Let's not forget that some companies and industries are still treating women differently, so having a unisex name could help your kid avoid early judgments when applying for a job for example.
