Unisex Girl Names

1132 unisex girl names with meanings, U.S. popularity, and audio pronunciation on every page.

Looking for boy names instead? Unisex Boy Names →

There is a particular kind of parent who reads a name out loud and thinks, I want her to walk into a room before anyone has decided who she is. That instinct is what sends people looking for unisex girl names — names with a spine in them, names that sound like a byline or a signature rather than a decoration. The crisp, surname-flavored end of the list is where most families land first: Quinn, all consonant and confidence in a single syllable; Emerson, literary and a little formal in the best way; Blake, cool and cinematic; and Logan, which has been shared comfortably between girls and boys for decades now without losing an ounce of its edge.

But the other half of this category is softer than its reputation suggests, and that is where the surprises live. Sage borrows from the herb garden and the old idea of wisdom at once, so it reads calm rather than tough. Shiloh has a hushed, almost pastoral music to it. Dakota and Finley both carry warmth in their long vowels, while Phoenix brings the mythical firebird and its whole story of rising again. If you want something breezier still, Taylor and Jordan remain the effortless, never-explains-itself choices that sound as natural on a toddler as on a thirty-year-old.

Every name below opens to its full page — a sourced meaning, its U.S. popularity, and a clear audio pronunciation so you can hear it before you fall for it.
