Did you know that Dylan’s Candy Bar was started by Ralph Lauren’s daughter Dylan? It’s not super common as a girl’s name, but it is amazing for girls or boys.

Another one that’s always been popular as a boy’s name, but we’re seeing a lot of little girls named Elliot lately. You can also spell it Elliette, for a more feminine spin. And how sweet is Ellie as a nickname.

Jamie is a classic unisex name. There are a few ways you can spell it, depending on if it’s for a boy or a girl, and it has tons of nickname potential (little girl named James, anyone?).

16. Rory

Now, in Gilmore Girls, Rory is short for Lorelai. But it works on it’s own too, for a boy or a girl.

17. Reese

If it’s for a girl, you can say she was named after one of your favorite actresses. If it’s for a boy, say he was named after your favorite chocolate candy. Easy!

18. Kendall

Arguably the most famous Kendall is one Ms. Kendall Jenner. But before she came on the scene, it was a pretty popular boy’s name.
