About Gentry
Gentry comes from the English word referring historically to people of gentle birth or a socially privileged class below the nobility. It developed from a term describing social status rather than a personal characteristic tied to gender. Its surname and word-name qualities give it a distinctive modern character, while its meaning remains independent of gender. Refined and unusual, Gentry works as a gender-neutral choice.
