“I named my daughter Tia after my friend who’s name is Tia and she was born in 1947. She was given the name Tia as a nickname for Patricia, her grandmother who was of Celtic origin. I did some research on the name Tia and read that it is of Greek, Egyptian and Hebrew origin. Yes, it also a Spanish language meaning for Aunt, albeit is of Greek, Egyptian and Hebrew origin.

The Egyptian origin sites say King Ramses sister was named Tia and the name means princess.

The Hebrew origin reads that Tia was a nickname for the name Tamara who was the daughter-in-law of Judah. Tia was also a nickname for Tamar who was the daughter of David.

From the Greek origin Tia means Goddess or Godly. Tia was an abbreviation for names like Althea and Dorothea. The Mythological Thea was the Greek Goddess of Light, Mother of the Sun, Moon and Dawn. Therefore, the name Tia dates back to ancient times.”

I imagine you’ll want names that are recognizable (as names) and pronounceable for your target audience, but there’s plenty to pick from.

And Kit is a very, very, very popular name for chinese boys (and it means something like “unique” or “outstanding”, I don’t remember).

Other unisex names in chinese that I can think of: Bo and Cheng or Chang.
