[name_m]Hi[/name_m] everyone! My name is [name_m]Ezra[/name_m], and I’m a transgender man. I’m looking for a middle name. My last name is very unusual so I won’t share it but it begins with an A and is also two syllables, think something like [name_m]Allen[/name_m]. Since both my first name and surname are two syllables, I think a 1 or 3 or more syllable name would flow best in the middle, but I’ve had a hard time finding a suitable name. I don’t like any super common, like [name_m]William[/name_m] or [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m], and I’d prefer to avoid Biblical names since they can seem too Biblical combined with [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] since I’m not religious. Both my brother and dad have Scottish names, and I have Irish heritage on both sides of my family, so I like the idea of having a name with roots in either of those cultures. But nearly all the names I’ve found have two syllables. I am considering [name_m]Oisin[/name_m], since the accent is on the second syllable (I think?) which makes the flow better [name_f]IMO[/name_f], but I don’t love it. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any suggestions? They don’t have to be Irish or Scottish but that’s a plus!
To give you an idea for my style, some of my favorite names are: [name_f]Eve[/name_f], [name_u]June[/name_u], [name_f]Sonya[/name_f], [name_f]Leah[/name_f], [name_m]Julian[/name_m] (but I have a close friend w that name so can’t use it), [name_m]Marcel[/name_m], and [name_m]Rowland[/name_m].
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Rafferty[/name_m] would be my top choice!
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Hal[/name_m] ([name_m]Hal[/name_m] is the Scottish form of [name_m]Jack[/name_m])
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Keir[/name_m]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Ciaran[/name_m]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Seamus[/name_m]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Ross[/name_m]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_u]Jamison[/name_u]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Sean[/name_m]
Maybe go for a Scottish/Irish last name?
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_u]Sullivan[/name_u] or [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m] come to mind
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Dante[/name_m] ([name_m]Dante[/name_m] means “enduring”)
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Hugh[/name_m]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Duncan[/name_m]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Simon[/name_m] (may be a bit too Biblical though)
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_u]Brady[/name_u]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Eamon[/name_m]
