is lindsay a unisex name?

[bdjohnson]

So I am doing mock trial this year and I am reading over the witness statements to learn the case. Every year they make sure that all the witnes names are unisex so that they can be played by a guy or a girl. then I came across Prosecution Witness Lindsay White!
I have never come across a man named lindsay. have any of you?

I have. Not sure how it was spelled, but it was a guy named Lindsey/Lindsay.

What other "unisex" names do they have? I'm having a hard time coming up with any.

PS Pat doesn't count, that's not a name, that's an abbreviation

Mock trial ALWAYS using unisex names. The lamest thing I have ever seen is this case where the witnss was clearly a guy (with unisex name though). So what the other team did was put a girl in that role. So our opening statements, objections, etc, said "He saw this, he did that" and they would giggle each time we made the mistake. Lame.

Shot in the dark here, but maybe it's because they are being used for both males and females?

Winner!

Glen Quagmire : Taylor Hanson.
Joe Swanson : Taylor Hanson is a guy.
Glen Quagmire : [Laughs] You guys are yankin' me. "Hey, let's put one over on Quagmire."
Peter Griffin : No, he's actually a guy, Quagmire.
Glen Quagmire : What? That's insane. That's impossible.
[pause]
Glen Quagmire : Oh god. Oh my god. I've got all these magazines. Oh god.

No, seriously. I have never known a (modern) male with those names.
