Neutral names starting with A: Difference between revisions
imported>Sekhet (I double-checked all the names, and expanded their entries with more information, making this a finished draft of how I want all the names pages to be. As part of quality control, I removed names where the data did not support them being gender neutral, such as if demographics show that they are over 90% masculine or over 90% feminine in use. I retained a few such names when I had evidence that they have been neutral in some cultures and times in history.) |
