“We chose a gender-neutral name, Riley, for my daughter,” said Lori Kinkler, a psychologist in San Antonio, Texas. “We knew her sex, but gender is fluid and yet to be determined. Of all the difficulties faced by those who live beyond, or across, the binary, we didn’t want name-changing to be one of them. ... I like that she feels she has options and knows she’ll be accepted by us no matter what.” Riley is 3.

Kirsten Hammann, 45, in the San Francisco Bay area, and her husband named their daughters Teagan and Sigrid. She considers both names gender neutral.

“We named our baby Avery Morgann. The intention was to give them more room to define themselves as they get older. Also, name changes are expensive and frustrating,” said Portland, Oregon, parent C.J. Alicandro, who strives for gender neutrality in all ways for the 2 1/2-year-old

“We wanted to set up Avery with an opportunity to not be limited as much as possible by a name and be able to choose an identity as much as possible, given the confines that are forced upon them,” said Alicandro, a 31-year-old social worker.

Ah, Lemonparty, the 8th sacrament.

I'm a big dumb shitlib baby

There is not a damned thing wrong with people who are bull shitters.

I've seen worse than Riley and Avery.

Ah, Lemonparty, the 8th sacrament.

I find gender neutral names to be a pain, as many parent do. You tell people about your kids, and they wonder if it is a boy or a girl.

Maybe I'm a little biased on this one, but Avery is not a gender neutral name.

If you hate Laurence, then don't listen - don't comment. When he co-hosts the B&B show, take that day off ... listen to an old podcast of a Bernstein solo show and jerk off all day.

I don't really have an issue with those specific names. It's more their justification.

Avery Johnson
Avery Bradley
Steve Avery..

What a fuckin' dumbass. Those are women's names.

Well all you pussy leftists in the echo chamber have allowed the build up to this crap. So quit complaining.

Can someone here translate Dementia to English?

When it comes to the Bears, America is just a slobbering shitwagon. Every single opinion of his regarding this team is the most pristine of doomsday horseshit.

I liked the world better when everyone was named after Bible figures and/or mafiosa-Italians.

People have been naming their children stupid bullshit for as long as man has been fucking.

as for you Two Dogs Fucking...

What a fuckin' dumbass. Those are women's names.

Riley has that dual annoyance of being both gender neutral and a traditional surname popular with people who will eventually send their kids to Hardy Prep, St. Clement's or Francis Xavier Ward.
