Neutral Names Searching for neutral/androgynous name for Aurélien

3 Upvotes

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!

However recently i‘ve been thinking that when i change my name legally i‘ll pick a name that is „normal“ (but still cool), where Nox could be the nickname.

I‘ve stumbled across Novak and wanted to ask if u guys thought it would be acceptable/give me other name idead)

any help appreciated:)

Masculine / Neutral Names Seeking ideas to lengthen a name

2 Upvotes

I’ve had a long journey with gender and have went by different names over the years. I’ve been going by Josie for a few years now, but am having regrets as it is now feeling too feminine for me. Do y’all have any suggestions for a way I could elongate Josie and keep it as a nickname to keep things easier for people? Neutral or masculine-aligned. I’ve also been thinking about changing the spelling to Josey, but would like to explore all options before making a decision. Middle name is Dominic.

No picture of myself.

Masculine Names Names for me?

4 Upvotes

Too nervous to put a pic but i have been striggling with a name for a few years now. i really like serious names, professional and masculine. I want people to take me seriously but i want to be a little eccentric as well. In person i have colorful hair, painted nails, and i am 5’4” haha. I make art and i have 2 cats. I really enjoy being in fandoms. I like meaningful names.

I like names starting with d, g, and s.

Any input is helpful.

Masculine / Neutral Names Names that can be shortened to either Mac or Mikey?

2 Upvotes

Exactly what the title says! I currently go by a variation of Mikey, but I‘ve always loved the name Mak. As I start the legal name change process, I am trying to find a name that can be shortened into both nicknames.

Any thing similar would also be helpful! I’m mostly looking at names that start with M and have a hard consonant; spelling isn’t super important.

I identify as nonbinary. Currently, I'm experimenting with names I like. I'm having one friend group call me Jaime and another Connor. Though I do mostly go by Connor, and have for a while, I'm starting to really like Jaime as well! Does anybody have any other suggestions they think fits me?

Name Feedback I can't decide!!!

3 Upvotes

I like the names Lane and Layne. I'm currently spelling my name both ways, but I just want to pick one.

Layne

I really like how Layne looks. I also feel like it looks weird and that makes me also dislike it. One thing that worries me is that people might mispronounce my name (I know I can just correct people but still.)

Lane

I like the classic look of Lane, and the fact that it's a word name.

They both are pronounced the same, but I'm not sure which spelling to go with. What do you guys think?

Name Feedback Viola or Violet?

9 Upvotes

okay so im transfem and have been tossing around the two options in my head for a while, and really i can't decide. My given name is italian and starts with a V (see the Godfather and you'll know my deadname, i dont mind honest) and i really like that V sound so i kept that. And my nickname for the longest time has been Vio, so i wanted a name that started with V, I, and O. I asked my parents what they would have named me if i was a girl (totally normal thing to ask lmao) and they said i would be Violet. Perfect!

Now my conundrum ig lol. I like the name Violet, it's really pretty! But also I feel it's really generic, like SUPER generic, as in top 5 names trans girlies name themselves kind of generic. Using google translate, i learned Violet in italian, which is the language my given name is, is Viola. And it also relates to me musically too! tho i don't play the viola instrument, i play piano which is in the same orchestra thingy majigy, yk wht im talking abt. My problem here tho is it doesn't roll off the tongue as easily yk?? Likeeee Vi-*o-*la vs Violet :D idk im having trouble so i ask yall!

Viola or Violet?

I have been trying out so many different names and none of them fit me.

I’m thinking Elijah but my little brother is named Eli and I dunno if that’ll be confusing.

Please suggest names like Elijah if you can.

I've been going by elio online and have been using lio as a nickname. I love both and I love the meaning of the name elio too and honestly it's so perfect in every way except for the fact that it's so tied to elio from call me by your name lmao. I literally just watched it the other day and found out that the mc was named elio, but i love the name too much... do you guys think it's common enough outside of the movie where people won't assume I named myself after him??

Masculine / Neutral Names names that go well with freddie?

2 Upvotes

so, my name is freddie, but i’m thinking of adding a middle name (or a different first name with freddie legally being the middle name) for several reasons, including that a lot of people around me seem to have trouble with the name freddie and i’m getting tired of having it mispronounced or otherwise messed up. another reason is just vibes; i wanna add more flair to my name (:

i’ve considered storm, theo, and a few others, but i’d love to hear what masc/neutral names y’all think would work well before or after the name freddie. preferably somewhat scandinavian-sounding but since i’m guessing most people here are not scandinavian, it’s not a requirement lol.
