<span lang="EN-US">Personal (or given) names in many countries are typically sex-specific, whether this is legally enforced or completely unregulated, and gender-neutral names are rather rare. In some languages, such as English and Japanese</span><span lang="EN-US">,
names are not linguistically obligated to indicate a person’s sex category suggesting that the representation of
</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="color:black">sex</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="color:black"> and gender
</span><span lang="EN-US">in names in these languages is socially motivated. </span>
<span lang="EN-US">Previous re</span><span lang="EN-US">search on name selection in the United States pointed out that gender-neutral names tend to evolve from masculine names, and are seen as more advantageous for girls than boys, to whom sex stereotyping
is more rigidly applied (Lieberson et al, 2000). However, recent developments suggest that such tendencies change over time and vary across cultures. For example, parenting and baby name websites report and reflect an increasing interest in names which do
not indicate a child’s sex or gender. In Japan, not only are gender-neutral names on the rise but a number of them were originally used only for girls. In other languages, such as Czech, gender markings are linguistically obligatory, meaning that choosing
to use gender-neutral names may have a larger impact on the language long-term.</span><span lang="CS"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph">
<span lang="EN-US">Our main goal in this special issue is to advance the present state of knowledge about gender-related personal naming practices especially in contexts, observed in many countries, of recent shifts around gender equality and in conceptualizations
of gender as non-binary. We aim to bring together a collection of studies dealing with gender in personal or given names across a range of languages and cultures. Contributions will incorporate the latest findings about current preferences for expressing gender
in names, identifying regional and cultural specifics, and their interactions with more general trends.</span><span lang="CS"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm"><span lang="EN-US">We welcome contributions exploring recent trends in name selection with respect to gender in any language culture and from a variety of perspectives, and grounded in a range of disciplines –
anthropology, linguistics, psychology, sociology, and other fields. Topics might include:
