Sören

Sounds feminine to me.

This name sounds so effeminate!

This is my name, and although I like it very much, it can be a bit frustrating to have this name in an English-speaking country where the majority of people have never heard of it. I almost always have to spell my name when I introduce myself, and tell people explicitly how to pronounce it (like "certain" without the T). People who read the name without hearing it pronounced first tend to say it with a long O. Then there's the fact that the umlaut over the O is usually omitted from official documents and even identification cards, because English language keyboards have no way to type it. Sören is a much easier name to have if you live in a country where it is used or at least known, like the Nordic countries or Germany.

Such a grand name!
