You have never seen true anarchy like girl's names in America.

Literally *anything* goes.

Of course, you can choose a classic girl's name like Hannah or Elisabeth, but why stop there? Why not choose a classic boy's name like Alex, Charlie, or Sam, instead? Very cool. If that's not out there enough for you, you can even choose a last name (Mackenzie, Parker, Reagan, Monroe).

Now we're talking!

You can also draw your inspiration from the time of year. Name your girl after a month (April, May, June, July/Juliet), or even an entire season (Autumn, Winter, Summer).

If that doesn't do it for you, why not name the kid after your favorite plant (Ivy, Jasmine, Olive, Rose, Lilly, Iris, Violet, Holly)? Or how about one of the classic virtues (Grace, Patience)?

Like I said: *anything* goes.

Meanwhile, the most creative thing you can get away with for a boy is an old-school profession for tough dudes (Hunter, Archer, Mason), and that's about it.

Imagine you named your next boy after a plant (Oak, Hogweed, Thistle), or after a virtue (Fortitude, Courage), would you get away with it? What about a classic girl's name (Ophelia, Nancy, Martha)?

As you can see: from the very beginning, girls play life on easy mode 😛
