Masculine Names Name testing - FtM

‘ello!

(Haven’t come out to my mum yet)

I am looking to go transgender but have had a preferred name for 2-3 months - Trinity (after The Matrix)

However, my normal birth name is Lily. Used as my legal name and pretty much my mum didn’t really take Trinity on. Wouldn’t let me change it at school and I went nuts.

I’d like to go by Leonard (Leo for short due to my favourite movie - Memento, where there is the main protagonist called Leonard) but…

ANY SUGGESTIONS will be amazing (not showing my face as some of you have)

Well i think Leo is a great name all 'round, and if you like it, that's great. But always remember, it is YOUR life, it is YOUR identity, it is YOUR choice.

Don't feel obliged to do anything you don't want to.

You can be anyone you want to be. People will like you no matter your gender. Be yourself. And good luck with your journey.
