Obviously, there are a lot of names which are recognized as being unisex like Ashley for example.

But how about ones you didn't know could also be a name for the opposite sex?

e.g. Rory is the latest one I've discovered as also being a female name. The only Rorys I know are all male. And it doesn't sound very feminine to me, either!

My mind has gone blank to some other examples even though I could name quite a few but I'm sure you guys will remind me of some.

I guess it depends on where in the world you live as some names are more common in some places than others and we won't all be as shocked as each other that one name can be used for either a boy or a girl, but let's see.
