| | title = Lists of neutral names | | 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]]. |
