Helptransgender (FTM), suggest names?
I've been trying to choose a new, masculine name for about a year. Someone within the trans community suggested asking the fine folks at the baby names forums! :)
My last name is Zimmerman, so it's hard for me to find names that really flow.
Any masculine first name suggestions are helpful, and I'll take middle name suggestions too. Thank you all!
One caveat, though. I have a sister named Emily, so I don't want to confuse my older relatives by taking on a name with the same initials. I figure it'll reduce their judgment if I end up with an accessible name. XD

If your name was Samantha, I would go for Samson, Paula=- Paul, etc. This way you wouldn't be hard to get use to your new name.

That's what I was thinking, but I love longer names too. :) Kind of a guilty pleasure I suppose?
I like Noah.
I like Noah.

Benjamin/Ben springs to mind. I think it's warm and friendly, and masculine without being too macho. :)

This should all be your choice... I don't think it should make a difference if you're a F to M or just M. I know a transgender person who's mom suggested Brooke and that's her name now.

I know someone with the same surname as you, and he's named Oskar. He has an older brother named Axel. Maybe something for you?

Could you give us an idea of what sort of names you like (classic, trendy, unusual, etc.)?
1
Agreed. There are so many names out there that we could give you a list of 1000 and you might not like any.
Even one name you like, one style you like, or one meaning you like would help.

But if OP isn't a name collector like the rest of us, he might not really know what kind of names he likes. It might be more helpful to suggest the names we, personally, would consider if we were naming a kiddo with OP's surname.
I'll post sugfestions shortly.

Gosh, thank you all! I know it's my decision, but it helps to have some direction. :) You've all been very helpful. I like Oscar because it feels a little old-fashioned. Sorry I didn't provide a type before!
