I am in "team yellow" as they say, and my son (George) wants baby to be called James. So it got me thinking about unisex names (which my phone spellcheck has just tried to change to 'unwise'...a sign?!?)

George itself has been used by girls, and I know Evelyn, Marilyn are also used for boys but it would be exceptional iyswim.

Any other genuinely androgenous given names out there? Preferably unisex in their full form, not just the nickname (e.g. Pip for Philip/pa, Kit for Christopher/Christine)

I'm not yet sure about this naming strategy so won't necessarily use a unisex name, but just for completeness, we have a short surname that is a common boy's name too.

Thought of another one myself yesterday - Jude. Not a favourite name but I would expect to find it on cool trendy kids of both sexes.
