Please help me with male equivalents to [name_f]Ellen[/name_f].
Going by sound…
[name_u]Ellis[/name_u]
[name_u]Ellison[/name_u]
[name_u]Eliot[/name_u]
Elior
Or something that has the same “light/bright/shining” meaning like…
[name_m]Aaron[/name_m]
[name_m]Beacon[/name_m]
[name_m]Hubert[/name_m]
[name_m]Kiran[/name_m]
[name_m]Lito[/name_m]
[name_m]Lucian[/name_m]/[name_m]Lucius[/name_m]
[name_m]Meir[/name_m]
[name_m]Meyer[/name_m]
[name_m]Robert[/name_m]
[name_u]Robin[/name_u]
[name_m]Uriel[/name_m]
[name_u]Valo[/name_u]
[name_u]Zia[/name_u]
Thank you very much.
I was not considering names that sounded similar but I like that idea also. I love [name_u]Ellis[/name_u], and it’s meaning. I am adding [name_m]Aaron[/name_m], [name_m]Hubert[/name_m], [name_m]Kiran[/name_m], [name_m]Lucian[/name_m], [name_m]Lucius[/name_m], and [name_m]Robert[/name_m] (a family name) on the list.
This will be a middle name for [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. Really liking [name_u]Owen[/name_u] [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] and [name_u]Owen[/name_u] [name_m]Robert[/name_m].
Maybe [name_m]Kellen[/name_m]/[name_m]Kellan[/name_m]?
Thank you much.

[name_m]Elvin[/name_m]
[name_m]Eldon[/name_m]
[name_m]Elton[/name_m]
[name_m]Elwin[/name_m]
Elvan
Helias
[name_m]Harlen[/name_m]
[name_m]Helios[/name_m]
[name_m]Heller[/name_m]
[name_u]Lennon[/name_u]

Thank you much.
I’m adding [name_u]Elias[/name_u], [name_m]Helios[/name_m], [name_u]Lennox[/name_u], and [name_m]Stellan[/name_m].
[name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_m]Elian[/name_m]? Most similar in sound that I could think of.
Thank you much.
[name_m]Elian[/name_m] is very close in sound. Adding it to the list.
