Not famous examples, but I went to a girls’ school for seven years and so many of my classmates were called by either masculine or androgynous nicknames. Off the top of my head I knew girls who always went by Phil (Philippa), Mickey (Michaela), Lex (Alexandra), Cole (Colette), Hans (Hannah), Chris (Christina), Shawn (Shawnette), Dan (Danielle), Harry (Harriette), George (Georgina), Nat (Natalie), Jamie (Jamelia), Joey (Joanne), Matt (Matilda), Charlie (Charlotte), Eric/E.J. (Erica-Jane)...

I know that none of you guys watch “Better Things”, but all the main female characters go by male names. Sam and her daughters Max, Frankie and Duke. Her mother is Phil.

The brother’s name is Marion.
