The gender-neutral baby names tipped to be big in 2018

Gender neutrality is becoming more and more of a hot topic for parents – would you opt for a unisex name?

As millennials grow up and start having babies, they’re bringing a lot of changes to the parenting landscape.

Many of the new generation of mums and dads are eschewing norms by ditching gender-specific toys, clothes and even names.

It’s a trend surely driven by celebrity parents who’ve shunned tradition with their choices.

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis named there little girl Wyatt while Dax Shepherd and Kristen Bell called theirs Lincoln and Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have a daughter called James, all proving that names can be as fluid as gender itself.

The team at baby name website Nameberry have revealed the unisex names they think are going to become more and more popular, based on page views on the site in the last year.

  • Quincy
  • Remi
  • Winter
  • Ellis
  • Briar
  • Indigo
  • Sage

Briar and Winter might seem a little out there but they are at least unique – perfect for parents who don’t want the same names as everyone else.
