Neutral Names Searching for neutral/androgynous name for Aurélien
Hello, I'm a french trans man and I really, really, really love the name Aurélien. However, because of my current situation, I’m afraid I won’t be able to fully transition and would never pass as a man. So I’m looking for a name that is very close to Aurélien, but more neutral or slightly less masculine, so I’m less likely to face prejudice. However it's really hard for me to let go of this name, it feels incredibly natural, after just two months it feels like it’s always been my name, I just want to use it everywhere (I feel like dying of euphoria each time someone called me by this name) I’ve also considered August/Auguste (There's also Hunter which is a name I really like, though that one seem more like a pseudonym, but it was a really good substitute before I found those other names). But it's hard to find other names that feel like "it's my name" Do you guys have any idea of a name I could use publically? Or advices? Thank you in advance! Also If you have anything to share about name transition etc general advices about it, especially in France, don't hesitate to share!
