- If you don't know the gender about a name
- If you want to research with statistics about why a name is related with males or females.
- If you want to use a free gender detection tool from a name from a command with open data.
- If you want to use the main solutions in gender detection (Genderize, Genderapi, Namsor, Nameapi and Gender Guesser) from a command.
