Honest thoughts on the names Rowan, Felix, and Ezra?

Hiya!

I’m transgender/nonbinary, and I’m looking to change my name again.

Originally, I had changed it from [name_f]Katie[/name_f] to [name_m]Caden[/name_m]. I like the name, but I feel like it has too much connotations with ‘frat boyness’ and ‘chadness’ if that makes sense.

I’ve narrowed down my list to the three names in the title, what do you guys think about them?

I’m also taking other suggestions if you guys have any ideas. Thanks in advance!

I like all three of them, for [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] I’d even go so for as to say I love it. Definitely proper and usable choices. But [name_m]Felix[/name_m] and [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] read 100% male to me, so my advice would be to go with [name_u]Rowan[/name_u] in your case.

[name_u]Rowan[/name_u], [name_m]Felix[/name_m] and [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] are all fantastic names!

[name_u]Rowan[/name_u] is earthy, cool and gentle

[name_u]Ezra[/name_u] has spark, brightness and a literary ref

[name_m]Felix[/name_m] is so cheerful, fun and cool!

[name_u]Ezra[/name_u] is my personal fave :slight_smile:

[name_m]Reuben[/name_m], [name_u]Emmett[/name_u], [name_u]Asher[/name_u], [name_u]Ira[/name_u], [name_m]Cormac[/name_m] and [name_u]Toby[/name_u] came to mind as similar suggestions

[name_u]Rowan[/name_u] and [name_m]Felix[/name_m] are wonderful names! Actually they’re some of my all time favorites.

(Nothing wrong with [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] either, I just don’t happen to be a fan personally.)

Best of luck to you in your name change journey! I’ve been there before (and [name_u]Rowan[/name_u] was a name I seriously considered for myself, funnily enough) and it can be a pain but so incredibly worth it :blush:

ezra & felix both seem completely masc to me, so i think rowan fits best for you!

While I like all of them they all feel so totally different to me that it’s surprising for me to see them as options for one person. I couldn’t imagine the same person named [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] potentially being named [name_m]Felix[/name_m].

That said [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] is my personal favorite. But Id be curious to see what you like about these names and maybe a description of how you are as a person before I gave a real opinion!

I like all three, but my favourite is [name_u]Ezra[/name_u]!

[name_u]Love[/name_u] them all! [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] and [name_m]Felix[/name_m] sound more male rather than unisex to me (if that matters to you), but I do actually know a female [name_m]Felix[/name_m] too.
Such cool names.

[name_f]My[/name_f] favorite is [name_u]Ezra[/name_u]!

Some suggestions: [name_m]Pascal[/name_m], [name_u]Elijah[/name_u], [name_u]Asher[/name_u], [name_u]Eden[/name_u], [name_u]Jasper[/name_u], [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], [name_u]Jonah[/name_u], [name_m]Gideon[/name_m], [name_u]Finn[/name_u], [name_u]Luca[/name_u], [name_u]Leo[/name_u], [name_m]Malachi[/name_m], [name_u]Tristan[/name_u].

[name_u]Rowan[/name_u] is the most gender neutral one of the three. That could be a positive or a negative, depending whether you’re looking for a more neutral name or a masculine name.

[name_m]Felix[/name_m] is my personal favourite. It’s just a great name.

[name_u]Ezra[/name_u] is nice. I like that it’s short and modern but with historic use as well.

So actually I think [name_u]Rowan[/name_u], [name_m]Felix[/name_m] and [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] are all good options! Maybe [name_u]Jude[/name_u], [name_u]Noah[/name_u], [name_u]Oliver[/name_u], [name_m]Silas[/name_m] or [name_u]Max[/name_u] would also fit you. Good luck!
