gender-detection-from-name

Gender detection from name

This simple project detects the gender of a first name. An optional language parameter can be specified to improve the detection, for example: Andrea in EN is female, in IT is male. If no language is specified, EN has priority.

Install

npm i gender-detection-from-name

Example

const { getGender } = require('gender-detection-from-name')

  console.log(genderEN) // female
