i’m non-binary and i want to change my name to something that’s not too far off from my birth name but i want it to be more masculine. my birth name is [name_f]Abigail[/name_f] [name_f]Irene[/name_f]. the only names i can come up with are [name_m]Abraham[/name_m], [name_u]Abbott[/name_u], [name_m]Isaac[/name_m], and [name_m]Ian[/name_m]. any suggestions would be appreciated!

[name_u]Remy[/name_u]
I think [name_u]Gale[/name_u] & [name_u]Remy[/name_u] are nice gender neutral names. Alistar, [name_u]Alfie[/name_u] or [name_u]Adair[/name_u] could also work.
[name_u]Avi[/name_u] [name_u]Pax[/name_u]. [name_u]Avi[/name_u] is related to [name_f]Abigail[/name_f] via the root אָב ('av), meaning “father”, and [name_u]Pax[/name_u] is the [name_m]Roman[/name_m] goddess of peace (Irene, of course, meaning peace).

Lots of great ideas already posted!! Some of my favorite options…
[name_u]Ira[/name_u]
[name_m]Isidore[/name_m]
Iroh/Iro
[name_u]Ren[/name_u] (a classic!)
[name_u]Rene[/name_u]
[name_m]Reno[/name_m]
[name_u]Roscoe[/name_u] (long stretch but a personal fave)
Gail/Gale/Gael
[name_u]Galen[/name_u]
[name_u]Abijah[/name_u]
Abie/Abe
Bailey/Baylor
[name_m]Gabe[/name_m]
[name_u]Gabriel[/name_u]
[name_m]Abel[/name_m] [name_m]Irving[/name_m]
[name_m]Abel[/name_m] [name_u]Ira[/name_u]
[name_f]My[/name_f] first thought was [name_m]Gabe[/name_m] so I second [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u]
[name_m]Just[/name_m] that it sounds very similar to [name_u]Abi[/name_u] and [name_f]Abigail[/name_f]
If you go by [name_u]Abby[/name_u] then [name_m]Archie[/name_m] is close
[name_u]Gael[/name_u]
[name_u]Ren[/name_u]
[name_u]Landry[/name_u]
[name_m]Gabe[/name_m]
[name_u]Lane[/name_u]
