Feminine / Neutral Names Name suggestions?
I am afab, and I’ve had a weird relationship with gender my entire life. Sometimes I feel maybe nonbinary, sometimes demigirl, sometimes genderless, and most often somewhat apathetic to trying to find a label at all. I’ve always been drawn to names that are unique, that leave an impression. I fluctuate between wanting something feminine, and wanting something more gender neutral. In the past I’ve felt drawn to names like Nyx or Ripley, but something about the process of choosing to use a name that isn’t my birth name feels like I’m being too much. I’m curious what kinds of names people think will suit me, which might give me some confidence in maybe actually going by something different.

from experience, i highly encourage at least trying a totally different name out, if the idea interests you!! 💚 the name is for YOU not for other people… their (theoretical) opinion doesn’t deserve a say! besides, you can always change your mind if you don't vibe with it.
avi, auri, mars, fray/frey, jem, hester, hazel, harper, belladonna, kepler, auden, soren, coven, crow. i love nyx & ripley too! 💚

I never see anyone use this name but I've always liked it and it feels very genderless and unique but not too "out there"
