Neutral names used to be a rebellion. Now they're mainstream, and the spectrum is wider than ever, from solidly androgynous (Avery, Jordan) to names actively shifting from one side to the other.
How neutrality drifts
Names that were boys' names a generation ago often slide to girls' names over time, Ashley, Madison, Lindsay. The reverse is rare. If you want a name that stays solidly neutral, look for ones with that pattern already, not freshly-arrived crossovers.
