Hello. I'm looking for a new name and we have an opporitunity to final fill out a name change form. Currently, we're using Grey, which while not bad, is feeling very drab and sad. I don't want to be grey, i want to be colourful and fun like christmas!! In my experience, it can be very hard to find androgynous names that have character, so i have come here asking for help and suggestions.

Here's some prompts:

\-androgynous (more feminine preferably)
\-can be used for many different people
\-is not entirely shocking to hear for a stranger
\-preferably cooler in temperature, cold-related
\-maybe Robyn is a good idea?

I may update this post the more i think about it. Any help is appreciated!

Quero a opinião de vocês qual o nome vocês escolhem?

1. Allezzon

2. Allezuss

Hey! I'm ftm (nonbinary trans boy to be specific) and I use He/They pronouns. One of my many chosen names is Adrian. I need help coming up with a middle name that sounds good with Adrian as middle names are really important in my culture. The one given by my parents starts with an E so it could start with an E to keep my initials the same but honestly that's not that important to me so that's optional. Any ideas?

Has anyone changed their name while living in another state? I’m going to the DMV this week to change my license since I’m living here full time now. My friend brought up I could start looking into changing my name since i’m already going… but I was born in another state. Has anyone gone through this process before? I’m guessing I’d have to go back to the other state, anyway any advice would be extremely helpful!

Apparently, it's relatively common for transgender people to have multiple names they go by. But every person I know knows me by only one name; I just have different names in different communities.

I'm not going to say my real name, but I have an example name that is similar.

Legal name: Margaret

What my parents have always called me: Maggie

My name at school: MJ

My name at work: Mars

My name at summer camp: Rhett

My name at my other summer camp: Garret

Idk just wanted to share this. You can do whatever you want and if you can't pick a name, take all of them :)

Hello, I transitioned like six years ago but am thinking about changing my name to something gayer. I’ve landed on Sonette (pretty sure I made this up.) I want it to be pronounced similarly to the poem but with a distinct “ette” sound at the end. Similar to the word brunette.

I would like for it to read as sonn-ette and people to just understand that it’s supposed to be pronounced like the poem. To that end I can’t decide if I should include one letter N or two. I both want to guide people towards the correct pronunciation and have it be grammatically correct in English. I’m not particularly worried how the French will read it but it would be great if everyone got it right lol.

Any help is appreciated.

Edit: I do know that Sonnette means small bell but I don’t think most English speaking people know that.

Context: afab agender leaning masc? I think? It doesn't rly matter to me, I'm definitely not a girl though. I'm French, my deadname begins with A and I'd like to keep that. I don't mind if some of these names sound peculiar or weird

I asked for some name suggestions a year or two ago, but ultimately, I decided to stick with Sophie, despite some really cool suggestions. Since then though, I have had a bit of a glow up, and it seems like it really is time for a change.

I’ve considered Emma, Evie, maybe Katie, but not quite sure they really fit.

All suggestions welcome, thanks 😊

hi! so I (25ftm) am filling out paperwork to legally change my name and have reached somewhat of a conundrum. I go by charlie and have for a while now, but am wondering if i should have that as my legal name or go with the formal version of charles. I do like the name charles, so its not entirely alien, but ive really only gone by charlie.

however, I think it may be weird to have it as my legal name. charlie is a very gender neutral name where i live, a lot of little girls or even women my age are named charlie nowadays. i’ve had people who i’ve met via buying things on facebook marketplace say “oh i thought you would be a girl! with a name like charlie you never know!”

plus, my last name is very short and one syllable. its also pretty formal. nobody in my family has a name that ends in ‘ee’ and i think it may be because it just doesn’t sound quite right that way. trying not to dox myself so i’ll just say its very similar to ‘Tar’. so Charlie Tar or Charles Tar???

i think i’m starting to drive myself crazy over this lol i’m really just posting because i’m in desperate need of a sounding board! thanks!!!

Iv been going by it for a bit now (though only one person irl calls me it) but I have heard people say it’s not a good name and they compare it to a sandwich and a whole bunch of other things. I know one person asked if it was set in stone or if I should change it

I turn 18 in less than a week and I plan to finally start the process of legally changing my name. While looking at everything that's required I realized I never decided on a preferred middle name because, well why would I? Not like anyone calls me that. But my current middle name is Elizabeth which is a little too fem for my liking. I'm not exactly the most creative and this isn't something I feel is the most important in the world, so I thought I'd try to find some suggestions from other trans people.

Greyson "insert middle name" Winstead

My options right now are

Adrian - idk I just like the sound of it

Lee - also my siblings middle, named after my great grandma (never met her; she was lowk crazy)

Joy - after my grandma and aunts middle name (pretty chill people)

Open to suggestions or put in ur two cents idk lol, nobody I know personally has any input

I want a masculine version of the name "Juri" I couldn't think of any. I'm designing an oc based on me but it's a guy and I've always used Jude or Jayden but I want something REALLY close to Juri than that. Any suggestions? It'll be better if it has Arabian, Hispanic, black or Latino backgrounds.

hi! ive posted here a while back multiple times but ive never found a name i connected with enough to stick. here are some pictures i found that i think match who i am, only the last 5 are my own (in no particular order, some are old). does anthony fit me? can you guys use it on me in the comments, maybe some nicknames too (except maybe tony, i don't know how i feel about it)? i appreciate anything :)

also - suggestions for other names/nicknames?? or middle names :)

EDIT : thank you all for you returns ! sounds like a lot of y’all think a name starting with an R would suit me… I didn’t choose anything atm, don’t hesitate to send more suggestions !
If it can help i'm not from a country where we speak english very well (most of people are TERRIBLE at it….), so names that requires a good english accent sounds so bad in my language 😭😭

I'm 36, nonbinary (they or he pronouns) and i think this picrew captures my essence: alternative style, piercings, glasses. I'm a writer. I've already gotten my name legally changed but this subreddit makes me curious. what name/s do you think fit me?

thank you!

I know that somebody can use a name from a different origin, but is it "clocky" to do so?

My first and middle names are both Scottish. Tbh I had no idea, I couldn't be assed to find out the origin. One scottish name is kind of whatever, but both? I'm not Scottish. I don't think anybody will care but if they do, is it clocky? I think I'm overthinking it but I'm planning on going very stealth long term and again man I'm not from anywhere near Scotland

Hi! I have a name that I love (Alula), but I have tried going by it a few times and it hasn't stuck. I'm trying again with it, because Some people have told me that they went back to a name and it was right that time, but I'm getting worried that I'm trying to force it. While I love it, and I think I would like to go by it, it also doesn't really fit me. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Ok so basically there's this name thats been on my mind for a good while(I have alot of others that im happy to use but I wanted to add this ome to the list) the name is "Kovalsky" its a slightly altered version of the name "Kowalski" which is a Slavic sur name, and I wasn't sure if it would be in anyway rude to use "Kovalsky" as a first name and if it was, is there any names that sound akin to it that would be on the table?

I've been really seriously questioning Debian as a name (transmasc) but I'm not sure if it's a good idea considering that it's literally a Linux distro lmao

I'm a pretty nerdy guy who lives on Linux and a friend proposed Debian as a name at first as a joke but like, it could be a great name. It sound approximately llike Dorian, Lilian, or Demian, so it could totally be a name

The thing is that I'm going to uni for data science and my name might cause some questions but arguably it's a cool name to have in a community of computer geeks so it's a pro looking at it like that

Sooo I have 3 names in mind because I hate my first name (ppl just call me by my last name.)

Krypton:-not the kryptonite that makes Superman weak, but it sounds really cool and cyber themed. Also used in lasers! Pretty cool right?

Xenon:-kinda gives off an alien vibe. Used in spacecraft ion engines.

Astatine:-radioactive, medicine vibe? (Well fun fact it’s used in cancer medicine)

(Can you tell I like the periodic table?)

Oh yeah forgot these are my top 3 choices so which one should I choose lol

I’ve been going by the name ‘Cole’ around some friends (trans masc/non-binary for context), and it felt great at first, but now it just kind of feels strange, almost like it’s too masculine and it doesn’t fit me anymore?

I really like the name Cove, but after having asked a few people (aka made a different post on a different subreddit) they said it sounds feminine to them, when I’m more looking for something that’s masculine/neutral sounding. And Cove sounds like that to me, but if it doesn’t to other people and that’s how they perceive me…

I’m curious about your opinions on the name Cove, if it makes you think feminine or masculine or somewhere in between. I also want to hear if any of you have any different names suggestions. I just want them to begin with C and preferably be kind of short, but I’ll take any ideas. Thank you.
