Three polls have been posted (male name, female name, gender-neutral name). The voting period ends Wednesday night at 11:59 PM EDT.
One of this year's eyases will be given either an appropriate gender-specific name or a gender-neutral name, whichever receives the most votes. In case of a tie, the number of times each of the 2 names was submitted will be used as a tie breaker. If that is a tie too, a coin will be flipped.
