Gender-neutral baby names

Gender-neutral names are one of the most-searched baby-name themes in the UK. The names below appear in the official ONS 2024 top 100 and are widely used for both boys and girls nationally, so they are unisex in practice, not just in theory. Out of the ONS 2025 top 100, 5 names fit this theme, led by Luca at number 4 in the boys' list. Every name here links to its own page with the full ONS rank, the number of babies given it and 30 years of history. The popularity figures are the real Office for National Statistics figures for 2025 in England and Wales; which names belong to the theme is our editorial selection from the official top 100.

Curated by us from the ONS 2024 top 100 as names used across genders in the UK. The ONS publishes boys and girls separately, so the rank shown is the rank in the list each name appears in; many of these also rank in the other list outside the top 100. Accessed 2026-10-09.
