Determine the gender of a name
Namsor's name checking tool can help you determine if a name is more likely to be male or female. We offer many possibilities of treatments for gender name determination. Our technology supports a large number of alphabets*.
- Genderize a first or split name
- Determines the gender from a first name or a combination of a first name and a last name. Accuracy can be improved by adding a country of residence.
- Genderize an unsplit full name
- Determines the gender from a full name. Useful if unable to identify the structure of a name (first name/last name). Accuracy can be improved by adding a country of residence.
- Genderize a Japanese name
- Determines with greater precision the gender of a Japanese first name or a Japanese full name written in Latin alphabet or in Japanese characters (Kanji).
- Genderize a Chinese name
- Determines with greater precision the gender of a Chinese first name or a Chinese full name written in Latin alphabet (Pinyin) or in standard Mandarin Chinese.
From a first name and (last name) estimate the most likely gender
Analyzes a first name and an optional surname to identify the most likely gender. Indicate a country of residence to improve the accuracy of the determined gender.
From a full name estimate the most likely gender
Analyzes a unsplit full name (first name and surname) to identify the most likely gender. Indicate a country of residence to improve the accuracy of the determined gender. If the first name and surname are clearly identifiable, the Genderize Name feature will be slightly more accurate.
From a Japanese name estimate the most likely gender
Analyzes a Japanese first name and optional surname, or an unsplit Japanese full name, in Kanji characters or Latin alphabet, to identify the most likely gender with higher accuracy. If the first name and surname are clearly identifiable, the Genderize Japanese Name feature (FIRST & LAST NAME) will be slightly more accurate.
From a Chinese name estimate the most likely gender
Analyzes a Chinese first name and optional surname, or an unsplit Chinese full name, in standard Mandarin Chinese or in Latin alphabet (Pinyin), to identify the most likely gender with higher accuracy. If the first name and surname are clearly identifiable, the Genderize Chinese Name feature (FIRST & LAST NAME) will be slightly more accurate.
The Genderize Chinese Full Name feature will only work with Chinese full names written in standard Mandarin Chinese.
