No problem in South Africa ... lots of names in indigenous languages are totally unisex, and I once knew a woman (Afrikaans, of European descent) named Andries Gerhardus Philippus (after her somewhat tyrannical grandfather, who'd announced that the next baby born in the family was going to have his name).
