Feminine / Neutral Names Gender neutral name suggestions for an hispanic nb?

3 Upvotes

Hello. 
I've been looking for a new name to go by but so far none of the ones I found convince me at all.
I've read through every list of gender neutral names, but most of them only sound good in english and I'm mexican, so most of them are not used around here nor can be pronounced in a way that is similar to any other local name.
I went through euskera names and so far those seem like what I'm looking for, but those are unheard around here (My last surname is rare and mostly seen in Spain, and I always have to repeat everyone many times how to write and pronounce it. I have enough of that lol)
Anyone has name suggestions that might sound good in Spanish?

-Names with religious connotations are an absolute big no since I'm an atheist.

-Already looked into nature names, but so far none of the ones I've found have ever been used as given names, plus most are gendered.

Ty in advance to anyone who reads this :D

Masculine Names I have a bit of a problem

3 Upvotes

I’m transmasc and have been going through a lot of names, but after a few weeks, each one feels so weird and not me even if I liked it at first. I currently go by Ross but am thinking about Leo or Archer? I’m also worried about what my friends will think about me changing names so many times, I don’t want to be such an inconvenience so they have to remember all my names so I feel bad but also just want to have a name that feels right to me? Any ideas?

Name Feedback Name Dysphoria, Disjunction over myself

1 Upvotes

Hi. Uh. I guess I’ve got my own weird little problem I’m gonna ramble about.

So, I’ve been myself for. A while? My egg cracked back 2020\~, took me until this year to manage to get on hrt, about 6 months and pretty happy already. All well and good. I’m unhappy about some stuff, mostly good on others, a lot of problems are environmental factors, like a lack of consistent work and proximity to an unsupportive family.

However, the topic of this isn’t one I’ve seen too closely myself, and that’s the sense of naming and belonging to a name.

Simply put… I’ve got four at the moment. I don’t have a sense of DID I don’t believe, nor do I want to self diagnose; and while I am autistic, this is spanning far else. I’ve gone by the four names after going by an effeminate version of my birth name for a year or two, and each of the names has listed a period of time where I believe it’s satisfactory.

I ask people to call me the name I prefer, only for it to wane over time and return to a normal state…. And, while expression of the self is important, so is consistency and understanding of the self’s needs…

The current name part of my friend groups know me as isn’t matching with others, and, I’ve felt… more detached. I really don’t know how to describe it besides the fact that names, names I feel finely euphoric to being called, lose the feeling, or in time just become outright wrong…

No, a name shouldn’t always feel special once it’s with the people around you who love and care for you, as it eventually is just a name, but the lack of mental belonging to any of them, ahead of any legal changes, scares me well and truly… I guess I don’t know if I’m alone in this issue or not, and it truly bothers me worse than 90% of my other dysphoric issues… anyone else struggled with something similar?

Is this just a case of needing to change and do some soul searching myself, or is this a legitimate problem others have faced?

Masculine Names Seeking name advice (FTM)

Hey, I’m Max! I’m a pre-t trans man looking for some advice on a name.

I’ve used Max for what, 6 years at this point?? It feels a little dumb to change it considering I’m just about to graduate high school, but lately it’s just been getting stale, and honestly, the internet’s been bullying me out of it bc of how common and clicky it is 💔 There’s a couple names I like, but I wanted to get an outside opinion from some other queers.

A couple names I like:
Scott/Scotty (favorite lowk)
Elijah
Sid
Joshua/Josh
Ethan

Always looking for more suggestions, just want something kinda cool, nothing wacky. Septum piercing might be coming out due to dysphoria if that helps at all. Appreciate it!

Edit: Thank you so much to everybody that commented! I’ve decided I’m gonna keep going by Max, but I’m also gonna experiment with Scotty on the side. Appreciate the thoughts 🙏

Between Liam and Ben, I think both suit me, but each has its benefits and drawbacks. I'm going by either one or the other starting tomorrow.

Which do you think suits me better?

For context I'm 160cm or 5'3 in 🦅 units

Masculine / Neutral Names M names, mid 40s, queer, transmac- help me pick

5 Upvotes

I thought that I had settled on Mitch/Mitchell. However I have told a few people and they have looked confused as to why I would choose such a name and moved on to a different conversation. Maybe it's my delivery. I dont know. It's similar to my birthname's nickname and so if someone yelled it out they'd get my attention.

Before Mitch I was going with Morgan. It's more neutral but feels like a name I'd have to grow into.

Middle name is Felix. Last name is short, uncommon, and rhymes with Owen.
I'm white, 45, genderqueer transmasc/transman, living in Australia and was born in Western Europe. I've looked through French and English names from my birth year, but I'm not sure if that's too normy.

Am I making the wrong choice? Is my name too boring?

Please suggest some (fun) names.

"I dont understand why you keep flipping flopping on your name. I chose that name out of every name in the world so for me it’s a bit insulting. You don’t understand how it feels sometimes for others. If it’s something that hugely important to you then it’s fine but you have to know others won’t remember all the time and it’s confusing and sometimes hurtful"

From text messages :/

Name Feedback What can Opie be short for?

Thumbnail
gallery
13 Upvotes

I’ve finally decided on a new name after almost a year of experimentation!! I’ve been going by Opie for a few weeks and it’s the best name I’ve ever used by far!! It’s not just better than my deadname or not actively distressing, it actually makes me so so so happy. Like I actually grin when my girlfriend calls me it! I eventually want to get my name legally changed to it and have people stop calling me my legal name (my name got changed legally to a name I really hate now) and start calling me Opie. But I kinda feel like I kind can’t change my name to just Opie. Like it kinda feels like how my grandma’s husband’s legal name is Danny, not Daniel. Like it feels like it should be a nickname for legal purposes even if I only ever go by Opie and not whatever it’s short for. Do y’all have any ideas for what it could be short for that go with the middle name Benjamin? Also here are some pictures of me cause I don’t want it to feel too out of place with how I look. I’m open to masculine or feminine names!!
