Gender bending from the moment you opened your eyes...

[Ho-Oh]

What names have you heard that act as the same for both genders?

Like, in our discussion, Ashley / Shannon, etc.

What's the strangest you've heard?

Well, it has to be 'Suman'. It basically means a flower in Hindi. But still, I've seen both guys and girls with that name. xD;

And yeah, you've typoed somewhat in the thread title, Nica. There are two 'the'. xD;

On a side note, go read my blog!

I've met quite a few Adrians, both men and women. They share plentiful androgynous features between them.

The same goes for a couple of Taylors I've met as well.

Michael Jackson named his child blanket. Or Apple. I can't remember.

But that wins over anything. That's the worst name for a boy or girl. :(

I'm pretty sure one of them was Moon Unit, unless that was a different '80s star who named their child that.

Anyways, I've seen Jordan as a multi-gender name, and the same goes for Kelly, though those aren't very strange. I actually can't think of any ones that I haven't seen multiples of on both genders.

Ever since Phoenix Wright, I've associated "Adrian" as a female name XD. And then I got all messed up seeing Guy and girl Adrians in the school I'm going to.

And of course, let's not forget the priceless "Alex".

Well, my real name is Billy, which is supposed to be considered both male and female. Though I've never run into any females with the name. It kind of suits me though, having a 'gender-neutral' name.

I'd also add Jamie to the list. I know a few girls and a few guys with that name.

And as a side note, in French, the pronounciation of 'Michael' sounds almost like 'Michelle' in English. XD
