Take a look here: https://api.nameror.com/en/blog/post/determine-gender-of-names-in-excel-spreadsheet/Cheers and happy holidays!
And what it returns for unisex names like Sasha?

SergeiBaklan It returns "both". You can try names here: https://www.nameror.com/en/Sasha
Afraid that's only manually, Excel has no idea about the genders. If there are many repeating names, you may create dict table which maps James on male and Jane on female, etc. After that VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH it to fill the data.
- the_analyzerCopper ContributorWhat If I know to identify them.
Like with annotation in name.
Like Shri=means "Male" & Smt= "Female".
So now How can I create a column for male and females.
Please help me on this.- HML34Copper Contributor
