My personal preference for naming is to distinguish boy/girl.

I read an article that said that females with unisex names did better in the business environment.

I passed it on to my stylist!

My nephew named his baby girl River. When I told my son that, whose wife was pregnant with a girl, he said he was going to name her “Tree.” That made me laugh.

How about Creek or pond ?

My thoughts/feelings is that people do things like that for no other reason to be different and get attention.  River is not a name whether it's for a boy or girl, it's a thing.

River comes across as a boy's name to me.  However, that might be because my friend's niece named her twins, River and Brooke.  River is the boy, Brooke is the girl.

I love the name, Brooke, for a girl.

Maybe they're going to let the baby decide its gender.

I don't care for unisex names and feel sorry for them when they get older.

Some go way too far........I know someone who named their child after an automobile brand..............
