All over the world, בושם (Balsam , Bisam , בושם ) is quite a common gender-neutral forename. The given name בושם is characteristic of Syria, where it is quite a rare principally girly, but very infrequently masculine name, Libya, where it is quite a rare feminine name, and Sudan, where it is quite a rare predominantly feminine, but very infrequently masculine name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is commonest in India, Sudan, and Iraq. Also, בושם is the last name as well as the forename.
