The prom king and queen at my high school had the first names Tracey and Tracy respectively. Paris is an interesting case as it is featured in Romeo and Juliet as a male name but seems to be mostly a female name now, at least in its Parris variant.

Long before Shalespeare, Paris is also a male in ancient Greek mythology. (No relation to the name of the city of Paris BTW.)

  Meanwhile, to the Greeks, Troy was a city, but to us, a Chad.

    I noticed that a lot of these unisex and gender-switching names are geographical in some way. Sydney, Chelsea, Austyn, Brighton, Raleigh, Milan. Also Native American tribes, like Lakota and Cree.
