I knew a kid named Tynner (pronounced with a long "i") when I was young. I think the name is Norwegian and actually translates to "paint thinner" in English, but I've seen it as a first and a last name on the Web.

I've never met a trans guy with that name. :D

Berren: was that Catholic school? I heard some similar names at my Catholic school! I didn't think I'd see "Bambridge" again. There was a dude called that at my primary school and everyone called him Bam. Awesome name.

I really like the name Gabriel.  I used it in a story I wrote years ago for the character that was basically me in boyform.  I was in girlform at the time bla!

I envy anyone who can pull off Gabriel. Love that name.

At the moment, Gabriel and Vincent are the names I'm most interested in... My mother wanted to name me Gabriel had I been born male, but I am not sure whether or not I can pull it off.  I do like it, though.

Yess! It was indeed a catholic school. Though I only met Kai in High school, and he was so cool, he had long, bright red/ginger hair and it was awesome, haha.

Pff, I actually have a character called Gabe, because I'm still unsure whether or not to call him the full version. But I've never made a character who was me in boyfrom, though some of them have my traits. 0:

I have no idea what my parents would of called me had I been born male. By my dad wanted to call be Tabitha, and my mum wanted to call me Tula. But she decided on my name now which is almost identical to my sister's name.

I actually kind of like my birthname, Miranda, because its not very common, but its sooo feminine.   I think its more common as a last name though.   My grandfather was very persistent about trying to get my parents to name me Mellibaya for a while.  Kind of pretty I guess, but definitely a head scratcher.

I have a cousin who was named Brynn, and she legally changed it to Brynley because she got tired of people thinking it was a guys name.

I chose Kyle from my middle name, Kate.  Just switched some letters around.

Hmm, I'll actually be a bit sad if I have to change my birth-name; how feminine is 'Sia' to you guys? I read that in Persian it is also a masculine name though.

I think Sia is pretty feminine. Cool name though.

Thanks Addison. But yeah I really love it but it's so girly. Maybe I can just shorten it or change it slightly, my mum suggested Sai but I'm not fond of that name.
  •  

Nathan.

Sia sounds really feminine to me, sorry dude.

Berren

Kvall, you genius. I would of never of thought of that, since I don't have a middle name to begin with. But I'll definitely consider that, thanks!

I used to go by Adan and now go by Cassidy or Sid for short. My brother and his fiancée Vincent helped me pick out a name. They're my pack/family so I figured it made sense to have them help me find a name that truly suited me. I like that it's unusual and that it's technically a unisex name. I also like the fact that it's actually got several different varieties of nicknames I never had that with the name my parents gave me it was the most common most feminine uncreative name ever and then there's *cringe* my middle names. Which were different, but sounded terrible together. I'm going for Cassidy Michael (Insert absurdly Irish last name here.)

We actually just decided on the name last night thus the reason this wasn't posted sooner.

Not once have I heard my daughters names here. Trust me, they would fit in a FTM thread as well as any FTM thread.

I like Bastian too, its an awesome name. I changed my name 2 years before i even thought about transitioning to Kade, it just popped into my head one day, and i  loved it, its only recently i discovered it was a boys name. Funny though, before transitioning people mistook it for kate, now they often mistake it for kane.  :laugh:
I kinda wish i hadnt changed my name then, because now after being on T for nearly a year and feeling very male, i just wanna be called Ben. I cant really put my family and friends thru another name change though, lol. So Kade it is.

My birth name Magen, most people spell it Megan or Meghan.. I actually like my birth name but i can't wait to change it to Damian.

the sad thing is i chose Mekayla to replace my most famous of all time boy name that i hated since well always! it's sad when people see this very common imo girl name and can NOT pronounce it for the life of them. i know it can be spelled countless ways including Micaella which i saw in a bridal magazine i got, and i thought about changing it to that but decided not since i'm having all the trouble i am with this spelling and shouldn't be.

Mekayla is a really pretty name. I've always liked it, probably because that's my sister's name, except she spells it Michaela.
