All around the world, Yakoubi (Yakoubi 
, يعقوبي 
) is quite a rare epicene forename. The first name Yakoubi is characteristic of Northern Africa, particularly Tunisia, where it is quite a rare gender-neutral name, Algeria, where it is quite a rare principally masculine, but very infrequently girly name, and Morocco, where it is a rare largely boy's, but infrequently feminine name. Much more prevalently, Yakoubi is the last name as well as the forename.
