Over the years, more and more parents are daring to baptize their children with neutral or unisex names. Although many times this decision goes on the side of originality when naming your little ones and not following the classic names that are repeated for generations.
On other occasions it is also linked to the fact that parents want to raise their children away from the stereotypes and gender roles that society imposes and these often begin by dividing the names that people wear into what are for boys and girls, generating gender labels.
Neutral names have become increasingly popular with celebrities as well as ordinary people who can often be inspired by how they name their children by their idols. Let us not be surprised if after the birth of Indigo, the first daughter of Camilo and Evaluna, this year and next year we begin to hear this name more.
If you want to meet 5 couples who have opted for neutral names for their children, continue reading the following note.
CAMILO AND EVALUNA
We opened the list with the couple who just became parents. Last year, Camilo and Evaluna revealed through a music video that they were expecting their first child and that this baby would bear the name Indigo regardless of whether it was a boy or a girl. A few days ago they reported that Evaluna had given birth to a girl.
YUYA AND SIDDHARTA
The influencer and singer revealed that they would become parents in June 2021. Neither of them wanted to reveal the sex of their baby and they only chose to share that they had already chosen the name that would be a boy or a girl, this would be: Mar. The couple welcomed their first child on September 29, 2021, this being a boy. Interestingly, Mar was born right on World Day of the Seas.
SHAKIRA AND GERARLD PIQUE
Shakira and Pique decided to have two sons whom they decided to call by neutral names: Milan and Sasha. With the birth of both these have become increasingly popular in both boys and girls whose parents are inspired by the decision of the singer and the footballer.
BLAKE LIVELY Y RYAN REYNOLDS
The Hollywood couple opted for neutrality by naming their first daughter James after Ryan's father, James Chester Reynolds. However, they were also inspired by the fact that Blake herself bears a neutral name and revealed in several interviews that she likes this. Despite having innovated with the name of their firstborn, their second and third daughters do carry more traditional names such as Inez and Betty.
