Sawyer
Sawyer is a surname with a more relaxed and friendly feel than many others, and is one of the hottest occupational names right now, with the Nameberry seal of approval. Sawyer is becoming increasingly unisex--both Sara Gilbert and Diane Farr used Sawyer for their daughters -- though it was also given a boost by "Lost" 's James Sawyer.
Jessica Capshaw and Steven Spielberg were among the first to discover Sawyer when they used it for their son in 1992, the year it leaped up 356 places; it's now at Number 147. Sawyer recently entered the girls' Top 1000, ranking Number 548 in 2010.

Sawyer
Sawyer is a stylish, newly unisex name, used for their daughters by such parents as onetime "Rosanne" daughter Sara Gilbert. While Sawyer feels more conventionally masculine -- maybe it's the image of a person wielding a saw? -- this is one of those newly-stylish occupational names that can work for either gender. If you want something with less brawn and more brains than Sawyer, try Sayer.
