There are several Names Beverly being one that can be used as Man's name
or a Woman's Name.
Some though have different spellings.
Example:
Gale, Gayle, and Gail all sound exactly like. But Only Gale can be used
as a Man's Name.
Gene and Jean (Gene being male)
Jamie can be either Male or female
There are others I can't think of right now.
The two most commonly used on Saturday Night Live to take advantage of
this are Pat (Patrick/Patricia) and Chris (Christopher/Christine).
And of course many foreign names, because we don't recognize them, could
be anything. A Korean will know instantly that Daehan and Minguk are
masculine and Miran and Obok are feminine, but no American would know...
