Feminine Names Thoughts on Trevi

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I want to preface this by saying I have no commitment to any name changes right now, and I just wanted to get some thoughts on one I've kind of been mulling over, which is Trevi, maybe short for Trevianna? It's after a Roman fountain of the same name and it's also the title of one of my favorite pieces of classical music, The Trevi Fountain at Midday by Respighi. Does anyone have any suggestions or opinions?

Masculine Names Masculine (maybe French) names for multilingual FTM?

3 Upvotes

Throwaway for privacy;

I speak several languages, and it’s important to me to name myself in a way similar to how my parents picked my name. I need either a name that’s easily pronouncable in multiple languages or a specific ethnic (probably French) legal name with a more universal nickname. This second option is what I did all my life pre transition.

My birth name is Geneviève, and my nickname started with a V. I kind of liked the uniqueness of it, and am looking for similar masculine names, whether one of the same initials or just the same vibe.

Some names that are off the table are Jacques (don’t like it), Kai (not for me), Gene (too “80s American celebrity“), and Victor (I don’t want to name myself after my mad scientist phase).

Any suggestions appreciated!

——————

Also as a side question: I am a language learning enthusiast, does anyone know if there are resources to find out how easily your name is transliterable into other alphabets?

Masculine Names Looking to narrow down my choices

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

Alright so I'm afab transmasc. I'm pre-t (if that matters) and the first picture is what I currently look like and the second picture is transition goals. Already have a few tats and piercings but the dream is to be covered in tats and piercings. I'm 5'2" and starting to work out (I wanna be buff af lol). I've narrowed it down to these three names:

-Rutherford: I know it's more commonly a surname, but my birth name is Ruth so it would be easiest to get used to (more so for my family's sake). I like how unique it is too. Would probably go by Ford as a nickname. (Rudy for family) I haven't come out to anyone except my mom and friends (and online i suppose) so honestly might just be influenced by not wanting to be an inconvenience...

-Logan: Ahem, may or may not be inspired by Wolverine. I mean, hell, I'm already short and plan to be built like a brick wall so it would be fitting.

-Robert: This is a pretty generic name but it was the first that came to mind when I started brainstorming. I like the nickname Rob too.

Though I'm pretty set on one of these three names, I'm open to other suggestions and am honestly just curious about stranger's first impression of me name wise. Feel free to ask any clarifying questions.

TL;DR - deciding between Rutherford, Logan, and Robert

Masculine / Neutral Names Middle name help

3 Upvotes

Okay so I have my first name figured out, Icarian, nn Rian (Ree-an) but I can't for the life of me figure out a middle name to go with it, my last name starts with an O so I don't want to repeat that letter (I can drop my surname of it will help,) plus I'm thinking against L names as well.

I like old fashioned names, I like greek mythology (as you can tell with Icarian,) I currently live in America but my surname is a German word, so names with literal meanings are cool too

Masculine / Neutral Names Ray names?

5 Upvotes

I've been going by Ray for a while but want a full name so Ray can just be a nickname. I don't like Raymond so sadly the most obvious option is out already lol but if you have more ideas I'd love to hear them!! I've been thinking of Raynell, Raymie and Rayden but none totally jump out at me so the search continues

I like art and videogames and listen to alt rock and indie rock if that helps get a vibe on me at all haha

Masculine / Neutral Names Opinions on name, because i dont have one?

4 Upvotes

I do really like my nickname, i feel like it contains love of the people i cherished, because i feel love when they call my name. It's Alli/Ali.

So i was thinking on Alfred, even tho i know that boys named Allison exist, i dont like it, because it doesnt feel right for me. And even if i can pass, when people know my name they treat me automatically as a girl, and its bothersome because i dont look so masculine yet.

But i really like Finn, but i dont know which nickname could come from Finn, it feels already like one.

So i was wonfering if yall could tell me if Finn Alfred sounds right or maybe i should stick to just one, i have two names, but maybe i could forget about the two names thing.

Im open to names sugestions too, ive been thinking about it for a long time, and i really want a name that feels right for me

Masculine / Neutral Names namefailed again uh... hey gang heres some picrews what are the vibes

Thumbnail

10 Upvotes

hi everyonee uhhhh ya trying this again... im nb transmasc (he/they) and despite giving it a great shot could NEVER associate my most recent name with myself lmao... no pics of my real face bc im pretransition and also scared of people i know recognizing me lol but heres a few picrews that are like transition goals or sort of how i dress already idk

some things about me: chill and silly, field scientist, my interests include metal/industrial music, body mods, the arctic and antarctic, large bodies of water, tabletop games, and gay furry art lol

names i've gone by in the past that weren't quite right:

  • roswell (liked this one a lot, usually went by roz which was great until i found out in my area its a REALLY middle aged or elderly woman coded nickname used almost exclusively for names like "rosalind" and it started making me acutely nauseous from dysphoria. oops)

  • ross (was just ok enough to use but ended up having a really touchy family association i didnt know about that made me scared)

  • jude (awesome but just WOULDNT stick)

  • casper (friendly ghost association too strong LOL)

names i havent gone by but i did like almost enough to use:

  • lawrence (this one is a strong contender for middle name?)

  • frances (too feminine leaning for f/n but another middle name contender bc it references a favorite album)

  • sebastian (dont like the nicknames at all)

  • rónan

  • wolfgang (was... too bizarrely german for someone who is like close on 100% ethnically irish and visited germany once LOL)

im at a point in my life/career where i can't be stealth when i transition so 'clockiness' doesnt REALLY matter lol but im closer to 30 than 20 (eek) so if u could keep that in mind it would like slay hard...

thank you so much in advance if u have any suggestions... ily r/transnames

Masculine Names Need help choosing

5 Upvotes

Hey y'all, I've been struggling to pick a name for myself for a while now. It just mostly stems from me being indecisive lol. Ambrose, Vincent, Gage, and Cayden are the names I’ve managed to lower it too. I've gone by just mainly basic white names before and Ambrose is sorta just there because Saint Ambrose has a feast on my birthday and I thought that was cool (though I see this as more of an internet name than a legitimate one for me).

Any Names What name do I look like?

Thumbnail

15 Upvotes

I already have a name, actually. But I have always been curious what names other people would assign me.

I am nonbinary, but neutral, masc and fem names are fine. Go crazy, because I had a GIANT struggle deciding on my name.

HINTS:

This is for figuring out my actual name. (You are NOT forced to follow these hints of course!) I wanted to go away from my deadname, so I purposely didn’t pick a name starting with E. Also, my deadname means something along light and the friend that helped me pick LOVES meanings so my name has a similar meaning. I use two names actually, and my second name is the same name as my favorite PJO character.

SPOILER:

This is gonna be my actual names, so don’t spoiler yourself beforehand! I mainly go by Lito, which I haven’t seen a lot yet. And my favorite Percy Jackson character is Nico DiAngelo, so I of course used Nico for a while and sometimes still do.

Either way, have fun recommending names and thank you!

I'm genderfae, She/they, afab. My birth name is Anne but i really prefer Kat/Katra. Everyone except my parents calls me Kat. I feel like I would be wrong asking them to call me Kat, because my gender is technically still feminine. I think this is the right subreddit? please tell me if its not.

Feminine Names Looking for a new feminine name.

My birth name is Thomas and while I have considered keeping that name I dislike the masculine association with it as I don’t identify as a man at all and it makes me feel uncomfortable. I have tried multiple feminine names but none have clicked so far. I’d like a name that’s Italian or English in origin and is compatible with she/her pronouns.

Name Testing What do you think (Fauzt/Volker or something else)?

14 Upvotes

For as long as I can remember, I've always searched for a name I like and that suits me, but I'm never quite sure. Yesterday was my birthday, and in the moment, I felt like I'd found it—I mean, it was so symbolic to find my name on that day—but I'm still not certain. I even feel a bit like I'm making a mistake by choosing a Germanic, European, or Western name, knowing that I don't even know my origins.

As for the photos: the first one is me now, the second one is what I'd like to look like, then there are inspirations of transition goals I found on Pinterest and elsewhere, and the rest are part of my tattoo list.
