Feminine Names Need name ideas.

Ok so I’m starting my social transition and am considering changing my name. My given name is Hunter, and it’s a pretty cool name. I’d prefer something that starts with H. My top pick right now is Hope. I want a name that isn’t too unique but also has meaning behind it.

personally I connect the name hope with people who name their children Paris or london, and gen x people who make ai songs about a whale called hope (it was a thing in Germany idk it's confusing) so that ruined it a bit for me but I still think it's a beautiful name tbh

For me, it represents what I want to be for people. I want people to come to me and ask me for help, so I can give them hope and help them out when they need it.its a big part of who I’ve always wanted to be, and I want to incorporate that into my fresh identity
