I’m non-binary and looking to change my name. Ideally, I’d like something gender neutral (can lean either way but not predominantly boy or girl) and wouldn’t be jarring to hear on a white Jewish-American in their 20s. I’d like a name that I can continue to use my nickname, [name_f]Elly[/name_f], with (even if it’s not very intuitive) or starts with an E. I’m also open to other suggestions that fit the rest of my criteria, if you have any
Maybe [name_u]Ezri[/name_u]? [name_u]Or[/name_u] [name_m]Elzy[/name_m]?
[name_m]Eero[/name_m]
[name_u]Elm[/name_u]
[name_u]Areli[/name_u]
[name_u]Luce[/name_u]
[name_u]Ellis[/name_u]
[name_u]Bellamy[/name_u]
[name_u]Noel[/name_u]
[name_u]Lee[/name_u]
[name_u]Everly[/name_u]
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u]
[name_u]Riley[/name_u]
[name_u]Laurel[/name_u]
I really like [name_u]Ellis[/name_u]! It’s soft and cool and could have the nn [name_f]Elly[/name_f]!
Also second [name_u]Elliot[/name_u].
Maybe:
[name_u]Emory[/name_u]
[name_f]Ebony[/name_f]
I also have a non-binary friend called [name_u]Eagle[/name_u], and I think it’s super cool!

Maybe not neutral enough but I know an [name_u]Elias[/name_u] who goes by [name_f]Ellie[/name_f]
[name_u]Elan[/name_u]
Eland (meaning elk/moose in Dutch; as a last name it’s also spelt Elland and may come from an [name_f]English[/name_f] place name meaning river land Elland - Wikipedia)
(I’m thinking that any L name could give the nn [name_f]Elly[/name_f] from the initial?)
[name_u]Lior[/name_u]
[name_u]Lyle[/name_u] or [name_u]Lisle[/name_u]

[name_u]Shael[/name_u]
Apologies on my lack of knowledge about how some of these (especially Hebrew) names may lean too far masc or fem. I am a non-Jewish [name_u]Brit[/name_u] so not familiar with usage and just going by whether several name sites list the name as non binary when including them. I hope some of these will be what you are looking for, or lead you to the name that feels like you!

A nicknames doesn’t necessarily have to have anything to do with your name. It can be a totally random nickname and no association to your actual name. I used to go by Finny (when I was female cuz I’m trans) and my deadname was [name_f]Jessica[/name_f].
