Gender-Neutral Celebrity Baby Names

  1. Ice
    • Origin:

      English word name
    • Description:

      Ice officially joined the baby name pool when rapper Gucci Mane chose it for his son, born in December 2020. But Ice- names for girls had been trending before then — Icelynn, Icelyn, and Iceland have been climbing up the charts over the past few years. Could we see more icy names in the future? We actually may want to look to the past — nickname-y Icie ranked in the Top 1000 from 1881 to 1913.
  2. Bennet
    • Origin:

      Variation of Bennett, English
    • Meaning:

      "blessed"
    • Description:

      This spelling of Bennett is typically seen as a surname, but gets moderate use as a first name for baby boys and girls.
  3. Army
    • Origin:

      Variation of Armie, English word name from French "military land force; soldier"
    • Meaning:

      "military land force; soldier"
    • Description:

      Whether you consider it a word name or a spelling variation of Armie, this name maintains its meaning. Jill Wagner used it for her daughter in 2020.
  4. Ezer
    • Origin:

      Hebrew
    • Meaning:

      "help"
    • Description:

      Traditionally a masculine name, but as Ezra — which shares a root with Ezer — becomes more feminine, who's to say Ezer can't be used for girls? Ezer is the name of masculine characters in the Bible, but as a word, it is often associated with women whose strength help rescue humanity.
  5. Cashmere
    • Sosa
      • Origin:

        Spanish, Portuguese
      • Meaning:

        "salty water; rocky, pebbly"
      • Description:

        Sweet, spirited, and unexpected as a given name, reality TV star Lala Kent brought Sosa into the spotlight when she chose it for her daughter in 2024. A Spanish name deriving from the Portuguese surname Sousa, Sosa is a unique choice that still fits in with the likes of Luna, Rosa, Nova, and Luz.
