Around the world, グレ (Gure 
, Grès 
, グレ 
) is quite a rare gender-neutral first name. The first name グレ is characteristic of Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Ethiopia, where it is quite a rare largely feminine, but uncommonly masculine name, Somalia, where it is a rare male name, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is commonest in Ethiopia, India, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. More frequently, グレ is the last name as well as the forename.
