Lists of neutral names

In alphabetical order: Neutral names starting with A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z

An alphabetical list of neutral names starting with C, continued from the names page, which see for more information. These are neutral-gender names, otherwise known as unisex names. They are equally appropriate for girls, boys, and people of any gender. Nonbinary people don't have to have neutral names, and many notable nonbinary people have names that are usually either masculine or feminine. Neutral names can help make it safer for people to explore their gender expressions. In English-speaking countries, some of the most familiar gender-neutral names starting with the letter C include Carey and Chris. However, there are many more unisex names from around the world that start with C, as listed below. Previous page: neutral names starting with B. Next page: neutral names starting with D.

The list[edit | edit source]

Cache. Pronounced "cash". American English. A modern name meaning "A storage place, a safe hiding place, something hidden, or short-term computer memory" in English.[1][2] US Social Security Administration (SSA) data shows about 153 people with this given name, used as a masculine name 59% of the time, so it is very gender neutral.[3] Keywords: modern, mysterious, neutral inclined, one syllable, secret, technology, very rare.

Caelan. 1. Irish Gaelic. From the Irish Gaelic name Caolán. Various meanings, most commonly "slender", "child", and "powerful warrior." [4] 2. Old Welsh. From "cae," meaning "field," (pronounced kaee or gaee) and "llan/lan," meaning a community or town associated with a landmark. So Caelan/Caellan has the literal translation of "from the town by the field." Changing the spelling completely changes the meaning of the name. For example, "cai" (pronounced kay) means to rejoice in victory, and "lyn" means by water. [5] 3. Scottish. "People of victory." [6] 4. English.

Creature. English. Meaning "A living being" in English. Christening is a ritual of naming and baptizing (washing) an infant, which some Christian denominations believe is necessary to save the soul. It used to be that in England, when a family feared that a pregnancy might end in a stillbirth, such as if a pregnant person fell gravely ill, then the people had a ritual for christening the child before birth. The English believed that they could not assign a gender to a child before birth, when its sex was not yet known. For this reason, the people would give the unborn one of these gender-neutral given names: Chylde-of-God, Creature, Creatura, or Vitalis (Latin, "life-giving"). All these names represent the hope for a baby who would survive. If they survived, then the law required them to keep these names. When marriage records from that era show grown men and women with these names, historians know this is the reason why. This naming tradition goes as far back as the 1200s. The religious and legal changes that came with the Protestant Reformation stopped the practice of christening the unborn, and so these names completely fell out of use after 1680.[182] Keywords: Catholic, Christian, birth, Elizabethan era, gothic, life, medieval, renaissance era, three syllables, tragic, Tudor period, two syllables.
