Chinese given names are composed of 1–3 Chinese characters, with the exception of Ethnic minorities in China, non-Han ethnic groups who sometimes choose to use their native naming traditions instead and transliterate their names to Chinese for legal registration, often ending up in very long Chinese full names. Some characters have masculine connotations tied to them, some have feminine connotations, and some can be fully gender-neutral or will only gain a masculine/feminine leaning when paired with another character that has a specific leaning. Some Chinese given names may have the same pronunciation, but use different characters associated with different genders to give the name a gender association.Hebrew
Many of the modern Hebrew names have become unisex, that suitable for both boys and girls. Some popular examples are:Indian languages
Many languages of India, Indian names become unisex when written with Latin characters because of the limitations of transliteration. The spellings ''Chandra'' and ''Krishna'', for example, are transliterations of both the masculine and feminine versions of those names. In Indian languages, the final ''a'' in each of these names are different letters with different pronunciations, so there is no ambiguity. However, when they are seen (and usually, spoken) by someone unfamiliar with Indian languages, they become sexually ambiguous. Other Indian names, such as ''Ananda'', are exclusively or nearly exclusively masculine in India, but because of their ''a'' ending, are assumed to be feminine in Anglophone societies. Nehal, Sonal, Sonu, Snehal, Niral, Pranjal and Anmol are used commonly to name baby boys or girls in western states of India such as Gujarat. Similarly, names like Kajal, Sujal, Viral, Harshal, Deepal, Bobby, Mrinal, Jyoti, Shakti, Neelam (given name), Nilam, Kiran (given name), Kiran, Lucky (name), Lucky, Ashwini, Shashi, Malhar, Umang, Shubham and Anupam are also very common sex-neutral names or unisex names in India. Most Punjabi people, Punjabi Sikh first names such as "Sandeep, Gurdeep, Kuldeep, Mandeep", "Surjeet, Gurjeet, Kuljeet, Harjeet, Manjeet", "Harpreet, Gurpreet, Jaspreet, Kulpreet, Manpreet", "Prabhjot, Harjot, Gurjot, Jasjot" and "Sukhjinder, Bhupinder, Jasbinder, Parminder, Kulvinder, Harjinder, Ranjodh, Sheeraz, Hardeep, Kirandeep, Sukhdeep, Govindpal, Encarl, Rajan" are unisex names and equally commonly given to either sex. Also, names derived from Dari Persian and Arabic, but not used among native speakers of those languages, are common among South Asian Muslims. Since Persian does not assign genders to inanimate nouns, some of these names are gender-neutral, for example Roshan, Hitesh, Sudesh, Parveen, and Insaaf.Indonesian

Despite there being only a small number of Japanese unisex names in use, unisex names are widely popular. Many high-profile Japanese celebrities such as Hikaru Utada, Jun Matsumoto, Ryo Nishikido, and Izumi Sakai have unisex names. Many of the entries in the following list, in Roman characters, each represent more than one name, with different meanings, which are often distinguished by the use of different kanji characters.Nicknames
Unisex names may also be used as nicknames. For example, a man named Ryounosuke and a woman named Ryouko may both use the unisex name Ryou as a nickname.Korean

There are many Turkish names which are unisex. These names are almost always pure Turkish names (i.e. not Turkish phonology, Turkified Arabic names that have an Islamic connotation) that derive from Turkish words. These names may either be modern names or be derived from Turkic mythology. Some Persian language, Persian-derived Turkish names, like Can (name), Can and Cihan, are also unisex, as are even a few Arabic-derived names, like Ihsan (name), İhsan and Nur (name), Nur. Among the common examples of the many unisex names in Turkey are:Vietnamese
Among modern Vietnamese names, unisex names are very popular. Vietnamese people may distinguish unisex names by middle names. For example Quốc Khánh may be a male name (Quốc is a male name) and Ngân Khánh may be a female name (Ngân is a female name), and sex-specific middle names such as ''Văn'' for males and ''Thị'' for females also help. In many cases, a male could have a female name and vice versa. Popular examples of unisex names in Vietnamese are: * Anh (beautiful, outstanding, hero) * An (safe and sound) * Chau (disambiguation), Châu (pearl) * Dương (light, sun) * Giang (name), Giang (big river) * Hà (river) * Hải (sea) * Khánh (joyful celebration, bell) * Linh (divinity, essence, spirit, soul) * Nhân (kindness, humanity) * Thanh (clear, pure, distinct, youth, young, cyan) * Tú (elegant, talented person) * Tường (wise, luck)European

The Czech Registry Act forbids giving male names or surnames to females or female names or surnames to males, but does not restrict neutral names and surnames. For the period of Transitioning (transgender), transitioning, the Act explicitly allows the use of gender-neutral given names and surnames. A Czech trans people web enumerates given names which are most popular as gender-neutral names. Most of them are originally hypocorisms, or loanwords. The most natural of them are names ending with -a, falling under Czech declension#Masculine animate, male inflectional paradigm "předseda" and/or Czech declension#Feminine, female paradigm "žena". Generally, hypocorisms are not allowed to be used in official registers, but in case of trans people, they are tolerated. The most popular neutral names are Saša and Nikola, both with a slight Russian (or East-Slavic) connotation. Other names of that paradigm are Áda, Jarka, Jára, Jindra, Jirča, Jirka, Kája, Mára, Míla, Mira, Míša, Míťa, Nikola, Péťa, Saša, Stáňa, Sváťa, Štěpa, Vlasta, Zbyňa, Zdena. They are unisex hypocorisms of complementary male and female names, e.g. Péťa belong to male "Petr" as well as female "Petra". Ilja, Issa, Bronia or Andrea are felt as original foreign names. Maria is felt as a female name (this form is reserved for mother of Jesus, the common Czech female form is Marie, the male form is Marián), but some historical men are known under that name (Clement Mary Hofbauer, Klement Maria Hofbauer, John Vianney, Jan Maria Vianney, Rainer Maria Rilke). Other mentioned names are mostly considered to be foreign names: * Alex, Aliz, Janis, Jannis * Dan, Jean, Kim, Robin, Vivian * Andy, Deny, Lenny, Romy, Viky, Marti, Riki, Niki, Robbie * Ivo * René * Martine, Michele. * Nikol The page indicates some other names which can be usable as unisex but are not tried by that community yet.Dutch

Finnish law forbids giving a female name to a male child and a male name to a female child among other restrictions. Some names do exist that have been given to children of both genders. Such unisex names were more common in the first half of the 20th century. This is an incomplete list: Many of these names are rare, foreign or neologisms; established names tend to be strongly sex-specific. Notably, a class of names that are derived from nature can be often used for either sex, for example: Aalto (wave), Halla (frost), Lumi (snow), Paju (willow), Ruska (fall colors), and Valo (light). Similarly, there are some (sometimes archaic) adjectives which carry no strong gender connotations, like Kaino (timid), Vieno (calm) or Lahja (a gift). Certain names can have unisex diminutives, such as Alex, which can be short for Aleksandra or Aleksanteri (or variants thereof).French
Popular unisex names of French origin include: There are also pairs of masculine and feminine names that have slightly different spellings but identical pronunciation, such as André / Andrée, Frédéric / Frédérique, René / Renée and Gabriel / Gabrielle. In France and French-speaking countries, it can happen for people to have a combination of both masculine and feminine given names, but most of these include "Marie", such as Jean-Marie, Marie-Jean, Marie-Pierre. Marie (given name), Marie was a unisex name in medieval times; it is nowadays only female except for its presence in compound names. Notable examples of people with a combination of masculine and feminine given names are Jean-Marie Le Pen (male), Marie-Jean Hérault de Séchelles (male), Marie-Pierre Kœnig (male), and Marie-Pierre Leray (female). In the past, it was not unusual to give a child that was assigned male at birth the middle name Marie as a sign of religious devotion; the most notable example is that of François Mitterrand, François Maurice Marie Mitterrand. European royals often bear the name Marie, the French form of Maria (given name), Maria, in their names. Prince Amedeo of Belgium, Archduke of Austria-Este (Amedeo Marie Joseph Carl Pierre Philippe Paola Marcus), Prince Jean of Luxembourg (Jean Félix Marie Guillaume), and Jean, Grand Duke of Luxembourg (Jean Benoît Guillaume Robert Antoine Louis Marie Adolphe Marc) are examples of male royals who bear Marie in their names.German
In the past, Germany, German law required parents to give their child a sex-specific name. This is no longer the case, since the Constitutional Court, Federal Constitutional Court of Germany held in 2008 that there is no obligation for a name to be sex-specific, even if the child has only one given name. The custom of adding a second name which matches the child's legal sex is no longer required. Still, unisex names of German origin are rare, most of them being nicknames rather than formal names (such as Alex). Examples of unisex names include: * Eike * Gustl (the male variant is a shortening of ''August'' or ''Gustav'', the female for ''Augusta'') * Kai (name), Kai * Kim (given name), Kim * Lennox * Luca * Micha * Michi * Mika * Niko (disambiguation), Niko * Sascha * Sigi (disambiguation), Sigi * Toni * Ulli * WillyGreek

In June, 2019, Iceland's Parliament, the Althing, passed a new gender autonomy act which will recognize all approved Icelandic names as unisex. Previously, unisex names were in generally illegal in Iceland. The Icelandic Naming Committee (Icelandic: ''Mannanafnanefnd'') maintained preapproved lists of male and female names, with names not on the list - or on a different gender's list - typically denied. Earlier court cases had carved out exceptions, such as the names ''Blær'' (approved for women after a 2013 court case), ''Auður'' (approved for men later in 2013), and ''Alex'' (denied for women in 2013 but approved in 2018). Additionally, the new gender autonomy act makes changes to the traditional patronymics/matronymics used as Icelandic name, Icelandic surnames. Before the bill, Icelandic name, Icelandic last names (by law) could not be unisex: the suffix ''-dóttir'' ("daughter") was attached to a parent's name for women and the suffix ''-son'' ("son") was used for men. The new law will allow adults who have officially changed their gender marker to "X", a non-binary gender marker, to also change their patronymic/matronymic suffix to ''-bur'' ("child"). Newborns cannot be assigned a non-binary gender marker at this time, and will continue to receive a patronymic/matronymic suffix in keeping with their assigned sex at birth.Irish

Joseph Mary Plunkett was a signatory of the Irish Declaration of Independence in 1916, and was later executed as one of the leaders of the Easter Rising.Italian
In Italy, unisex names (''nomi ambigenere'') are very rare. There are names that are primarily male, like Andrea (which is female, e.g., in English, Spanish, German, and French) or Felice, that can also be given to females. Names like Celeste, Amabile, Fiore (disambiguation), Fiore, Loreto (disambiguation), Loreto, or Diamante are, as opposite, female names that occasionally can be given to males. Sometimes "Maria" is used as a middle male name (such as Antonio Maria). "Rosario" (feminine: "Rosaria") is a male name in Italian whereas in Spanish it is female. There are also unisex nicknames, for example: * Giusi or Giusy can stand either for Giuseppe ("Joseph") or Giuseppina ("Josephine"). * Dani or Dany can stand for Daniele (male) or Daniela (female). * Ale can stand for Alessandro (male) or Alessandra (female). * Fede can stand either for Federico or Federica.Portuguese

José is used for females preceded by María (María José). Also, Guadalupe (name), Guadalupe, a feminine name, is sometimes used as masculine after José (José Guadalupe).

Unisex names have been enjoying some popularity in English-speaking countries in the past several decades. Masculine names have become increasingly popular among females in the past century but originally feminine names remain extremely rare among males. Unisex names include: In the United States, most of the male names are now largely female, while in Britain, some (notably Charlie, Hilary, Sidney, and Robin) remain largely male. Sometimes different spellings have different sex distributions (Francis is less likely female than Frances), but these are rarely definitive.National Institute for Genealogical Studies, "England Given Name ConsiderationsOrigin
