Looking for a name for myself

Hi, I’m a trans person and I’m looking for a name for myself. My siblings’ names are William, Anne and Joseph, so I’m looking for sth that fits in well with them.

I’m thinking: Benjamin, Daniel, Isaac, Nathan, Oliver, Oscar, Peter, Simon and Thomas.

Edit: Thanks heaps for all who replied!! :slight_smile:

You have some great names on your list so far! [name_m]Simon[/name_m] in particular stood out to me; it has similar sensibilities to [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] I think.

If you’re unsure about [name_m]Nathan[/name_m], how about [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] with the nickname [name_m]Nate[/name_m]?

Some other ideas:

[name_m]Dominic[/name_m]
[name_m]Andrew[/name_m]
[name_m]Patrick[/name_m]
[name_m]Jeremy[/name_m]
[name_m]Julian[/name_m]
[name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_m]Marcus[/name_m]
[name_m]Martin[/name_m]
[name_m]Anthony[/name_m]
[name_m]Nicholas[/name_m]
[name_m]Joshua[/name_m]
[name_m]Matthew[/name_m]
[name_m]Zachary[/name_m]

[name_m]Oscar[/name_m], [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] are good suggestions!

[name_m]Ethan[/name_m], [name_m]Daniel[/name_m], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m], [name_m]Jacob[/name_m], [name_m]Arthur[/name_m], [name_u]Alfie[/name_u]?

Hey I’m trans too. I like [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m].

Maybe these?

[name_u]Flynn[/name_u]
[name_m]Harlan[/name_m]
[name_u]Mars[/name_u]
[name_m]Benji[/name_m]
[name_u]Sky[/name_u]

What is your name now? Maybe use something that is the boy version of your original name? (if you have a good relationship with your family and would like to keep it similar)

Here are a few more suggestions:

[name_u]Emmett[/name_u]
[name_m]Gavin[/name_m]
[name_m]Miles[/name_m]
Prefer just [name_m]Nate[/name_m] to [name_m]Nathan[/name_m]

I do like [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m], [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] on your list!!

Good luck. I am sure you will pick a great name that suits you.

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there,

All the best with your naming and transition journey :).

My daughter is also trans. I’m so proud of the confident wee girl she is blossoming into. She did a great job choosing her new name, but I do feel rather nostalgic for the name I picked for her.

If this is majorly awkward, just ignore the post. But I just wanted to mention my daughter’s old name, in case it feels like the name you’ve been looking for. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you feel like a “[name_m]Bram[/name_m]”? Strong, solid, classic but a little unusual, bit of a Euro vibe. The world could do with another [name_m]Bram[/name_m], and maybe that [name_m]Bram[/name_m] is you.

Wishing you well whatever you choose.

[name_m]Christopher[/name_m]
[name_m]William[/name_m]
