unisex english names.

I have not seen ALLEN as unisex names.

In fact, I answered similar question before.

Copied and pasted as follows:

事實上，亦有很多英文名原本是男仔用或女仔用的，但已被另一姓別用了。它們叫Cross-gender Names:最普遍見到的是:Jackie, Sandy , Allison, Leslie, Anson, Francis

其他 我照抄該書如下:Alexis, Ali, Angel, Ariel, Ashton, Avery, Blair, Comeron, Carey, Casey, Cassidy, Christian, Codi, Cody, Corey, Cory, Dakota, Dollas, Dana, Daryl, Devon, Devin, Devan, Dominique, Dorian, Jamie, Jaime, Jean, Jessie, Jordan, Kacey, Kasey, Kelly, Kellen, Kendall, Kerry, Kim , Kristian, Lee, Loren , Mackenzie, Marlin, Morgan, Noel , Paris, Quinnn Riley, Robin, Shannon , Shea, Shelby, Sidney, Taylor, Terry, Tory, Torrey, Tracy, Tristan.

咁即係當1個女仔用左allen呢個男仔名
咁allen就變左做cross-gender names?

可以這樣説。

上面列出的男女皆用的名稱,是一般流行的,多人見到的合用名。但並不表示一個通常被認為是男仔名的不能用於女的身上。如George這個一向是男仔用的,我亦在TV上見女仔用過。

所以如一女子想用一個一向是被認為是男子名,那是沒有問題的。

講不定,如今開始多女子用Allen這個名的話,那麼此名就自然入了list of unisex names了!!
