Gene

Gene is a gender-neutral title of Greek origin that began as a nickname for Eugene or Eugenia from the original Eugenios and has flourished as a stand-alone first name. This short and sweet moniker means “well-born” and will suit baby’s dapper demeanor. Gene is one of those retro-chic names that will always feel timeless. The American jazz pianist Gene Harris is remembered for his soulful music, and Gene Wilder has gone down in comedic history. A name so steeped in greatness may inspire baby to channel their creative passions, giving little Gene the confidence to unapologetically be themselves.
