Unisex names?

Asked by anthony81212 (389points) August 23rd, 2008

I’m having a competition with my friend to list all the unisex (works for boy or girl) names we can think of, for example: Robin.
Can you think of any?

I’ve met both genders of “Jody”.

I guess “Moon Unit” would qualify too?

Angel is a guys name too?

What about… Sacha, Billy and Peter. I know of a girl called Peter Smith marrying a man called Peter Smith. I’m not sure if the girls’ way is spelled differently though, I thought it might be Peta but that doesn’t look quite right…
