About this list
Many nature names are intrinsically gender-neutral, taken from plants and planets, animals and bodies of water, free from any traditional association with human maleness or femaleness.
Some of the names included on the lists of nature names for girls and boys can in fact be used for either sex. The top gender-neutral nature names usually given to girls are Oakley and Sage, while the most popular nature names for boys include Rowan, which refers to a tree, River and Kai, which means sea.
Unisex nature names tend to be botanical names rather than flower names, which lean heavily girlward. Animal names, on the other hand, tilt toward the boys' side.
The most evenly-balanced gender-neutral nature names include Parker, currently given 58% of the time to boys and 42% to girls, though we see the use for girls growing and the balance becoming more even.
Briar is two-thirds girls, one-third boys, while Robin is almost exactly even.
