Hey! I started a thread about this earlier but I wanted to start a different one, with better organization and specifics.
For background information, I am a trans boy, and I’m in the process of picking a name!
My favorite names are:
[name_u]Asa[/name_u] [nn [name_m]Ace[/name_m]]
Aciel [nn [name_m]Ace[/name_m]]
Emerio [nn [name_u]Rio[/name_u]]
[name_m]Lucius[/name_m] (lu-cee-uhs)
[name_m]Lucien[/name_m] (lu-cee-en) [nn [name_m]Luc[/name_m], like LOOS]
Seere
I’m not really looking for more suggestions, but if you want, I prefer biblical (Hebrew, Greek, and Latin), Polish, [name_m]German[/name_m]/Germanic, [name_m]French[/name_m], and English names.
What I’m really looking for is for you to leave your impressions of the names on my list. Thanks!
My top picks are [name_u]Asa[/name_u] & [name_m]Lucien[/name_m].
[name_u]Asa[/name_u] [name_m]Lucien[/name_m] is a !#@/@/^× gorgeous name. [name_u]Love[/name_u] every bit of it. Lol. Both names are great. Other good combos from the names…
I like [name_u]Asa[/name_u]. Not a big fan of [name_m]Lucien[/name_m] and [name_m]Lucius[/name_m], can’t really say why because I love [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]/[name_m]Luke[/name_m]/[name_u]Luca[/name_u]. Emerio doesn’t jump at me, but [name_u]Rio[/name_u] does.
[name_u]Asa[/name_u] - I like this name a lot! It’s short and sweet, and I like the nickname [name_m]Ace[/name_m]!
Aciel - I like this, but not as much as I like [name_u]Asa[/name_u]. I can see the appeal but there’s just something that feels a little weird?
Emerio - Same with amynis, it doesn’t jump out at me but I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] the nickname [name_u]Rio[/name_u].
Out of [name_m]Lucius[/name_m] and [name_m]Lucien[/name_m], I prefer [name_m]Lucien[/name_m]. It feels more solid, and I also just generally don’t like the ending -us.
I 10000% agree with @britkarma’s suggestion of [name_u]Asa[/name_u] [name_m]Lucien[/name_m]. Sounds absolutely gorgeous! [name_m]Ace[/name_m] is a cute nn, but I much prefer [name_u]Asa[/name_u].
I’m not really feeling Aciel or Emerio, mostly because I would be unsure of how to pronounce it. [name_m]Lucius[/name_m], unfortunately, reminds me of [name_m]Harry[/name_m] [name_m]Potter[/name_m] too much.
Based on the names you listed, you might like [name_m]Alistair[/name_m]/[name_m]Alasdair[/name_m]? Good luck and wishing you a safe transition!
[name_f]Bette[/name_f], thanks very much for the feedback!
I’ll probably cross [name_m]Lucius[/name_m] off my list then, because a lot of people I pal around with are really into the [name_m]Harry[/name_m] [name_m]Potter[/name_m] series.
