Aminta is also a unisex English and Spanish given name. Multiple users in the comments below have mentioned both males and females named Aminta is the Anglosphere and Hispanosphere. However, Aminta is more common for males. So, I think that the "Gender" of this name should be updated from "Masculine" to "Masculine & Feminine"; the "Usage" of this name should be updated to read, "Literature, English, Spanish"; and the "Meaning & History" section of this name should be updated to read, "Form of Amyntas used by the Italian poet Torquato Tasso for his play Aminta (1573). In the play Aminta is a shepherd who falls in love with a nymph. It is both a masculine and feminine given name in English and Spanish." An English diminutive of Aminta is Minty, so Minty should be added in the "Diminutive" section of this name.Sources: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aminta_Granera
