A good boy’s name may very well be a good girl’s name.

While we often talk about which celebrities have come up with the latest unusual name for their offspring, a new study looks at the most popular unisex names over time in the US -- you know, those monikers that can be given to either boys or girls.

Looking at data from the Social Security Administration, FlowingData has found the most common unisex names given between 1930 and 2012.

Jessie takes the title, beating out Marion and Jackie, which round out the top three.

A look at the numbers also revealed that roughly 0.5% of all babies born in this time period studied received unisex names, with the notable exception of 1992 when the figures were thrown out of whack by the 1.2%. That’s credited to the change in Taylor from a boy’s name to a girl’s, although no one seems to know why (and it sure as heck isn’t Taylor Swift’s fault – at two years old, she was light years away from being famous).
