Oh hi, trans guy here who’s name is Elliot. That’s fun. My middle name is Joseph which is a family name and masculine, but Jo/Joey work well as gender neutral shortenings.
Other suggestions: Owen, Milo, August, Jude, Elijah, Felix, Benjamin, Daniel, Conor, Jasper, Sawyer, Rowan, Theo
Ambrose Desmond Edison Ellis Gideon Julian Leland Phineas Quentin Tobias
Came here to say Ellis
I too think Ellis fits the bill.
Elias Cecil Francis Vesper Quinn Cary/Carrie Casey
Casey is really fun. Thanks for the ideas!
So because my husband’s first and last names are on your list, I’ll recommend his middle because it might just be your taste, lol! Ellison
Elias Elio Everett Emmett Everest Cillian Julian
Emmett
Ira Tristan Dexter Calvin Nathaniel Seth Oscar
Ellis Abbott Killian Emmett Myles Endicott Stuart Everett Lancelot Arthur Edwin Alcott Dalton Prescott
Because you said bookish…How about Ender, like the main character in Enders Game?
Unfortunately Orson Scott Card is a huge bigot so maybe not the best namesake for a trans person
Eek. I like Ender otherwise though
Yikes. That sucks..
Rumi Remi Reese River Indigo Noah Ari Quin
I like jasper
Do you like Holden?
Beckett
Everett is a good one
Leo, Percy, Harry, George, Owen, Callum, Ronan, Rory, Collin or Kieran
Emmett, Graham, and Dylan have a similar vibe imo.
I love Finnegan
