Is the name Nikita a girls or a boys name?

The name Nikita is a girls name and is a very nice one.

Actually, it is male OR female, meaning Unconquerable.

This is a Greek name originally used for the boys. Widely used in Russia to name boys. Not even considered for girls in Slavic countries. Apparently was misinterpreted on the West because of the Elton song and Luc Besson movie.
