I mean are their names that aren't unisex?

Plenty ... not that I'm about to list them all. LOL
For what it's worth, just because a few parents choose to use masculine names for their daughters, it doesn't necessarily mean those names are now feminine, or even unisex. It simply means those parents preferred something masculine for their little girl.
Example: one of my mother's female friends is named Jeffrey-John -- hyphen and all. LOL Her parents admitted they'd wanted a boy (but her issues with them go way beyond that). Does that make Jeffrey and/or John unisex? I think not. ;)
So while it's true a little boy named Lachlan, Nolan or Graham could conceivably run into a little girl with the same name, it doesn't mean he has a unisex name. Just that the girl's parents liked that male name for her.

There are a lot of names that were mainly or exclusively boys' names until parents started giving them to their daughters. Then they became girls' names. Examples include Ashley, Whitney, Madison, Beverly, Evelyn, and Sidney.

Yes, there are. Many, many names are gender specific. In fact, most names are gender specific. And just because some loony names their daughter James or Logan or Aidan, it doesn't make them unisex.

all names are unisex its ther person themself that think a name is gender exclusive... for me if you wana name your boy Catherine go for it hes your kid or if you want to name you girl Wesley.. she your child go for it so I dont find that names are gender exclusive how ever I know people that do.. so I think it depends on the person not the name..
