On my first try I got an erroneous result on a non-Anglo name:
http://api.genderize.io/?name=krishna http://api.genderize.io/?name=krishna
returned "male". In fact god names are unisex; I've met a female Krishna.
Edit: and "null" on Vishnu. I didn't see on the page whether this is supposed to extend beyond Anglo-American culture.
And "kyle" came up "male", tho I can report a female Kyle. Whoever is populating the database may be underestimating gender/naming trends.
