    So, being biologically female, my name is well..feminine to me. My name is Elizabeth and since I feel more male nowadays, I'm trying to find a more masculine name for myself. I've looked through baby naming books (They're pretty cool...) None of the names have stood out to me that much. The only name I've seen so far-That I somewhat like- is the name Leo.

    Are there any..cute(??) or any names that are unique that anyone can think of?

    Do you want any name that's close to your birth name?

    Well, it can be close to my birth name or not. I'm just looking for one that makes me feel like "That's the one-I want to be called by that name"

    I'm really fond of Elias/Elius. Up to you though... Don't be afraid to try out several before settling.

    I like the suggestions above for similar names! I especially like Eli and Elijah. Here's some random names I like:

    Edward (Eddy/Ned/Ward)
    Claude
    Jonah
    Rex
    Sigmund (Ziggy)
    Zebedee (Zebbie)
    Nemo

    I always suggest to people to check out gravestones and war memorials for names, it's a really good way to get inspiration.

    Perhaps look up meanings you like, e.g. peace, happiness etc in different languages and naming cultures.

    In my mind (though I think its just mine) Alexander is a brother name to Elizabeth and It can shorten to Alex which is quite gender neutral. I go by Jaye which you are free to use but some other neutral names I like are:
    Ezra or Urza or Erza
    Ren
    Sam

    Ah, not really? Just more of unique names which aren't as popular as other names.

    There's no relation between the names "Alexander" and "Elizabeth" at all and while "Alexander" is a pretty name, it's also painfully common.

    Personally, I like "Dorian", "Chase" and "Emmet."

    I found my name through heritage. A big chunk of my family was from Estonia, so I looked at estonian names, once I found Kaja (Kaya) It just seemed more right. Perhaps if you have some strong heritage that would be a good place to look for some more unique names?

    :slight_smile: Thank you everyone for the name suggestions. There were a few that caught my eye, but I'm going to keep searching. I might test out the names I like to see how I'd feel with being called by them.
