Globally, คอง (Khong 
, คอง 
) is quite a rare gender-neutral first name. The first name คอง is characteristic of South-eastern Asia, particularly Singapore, where it is quite a rare gender-neutral name, Malaysia, where it is a rare unisex name, and Vietnam, where it is a rare largely masculine, but infrequently female name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is commonest in Vietnam, Indonesia, and China. More prevalently, คอง is the last name as well as the forename.
