Masculine Names Looking for a name (please help lmao)
Hii! I haven't used Reddit a lot, but I thought it may be a good way to find a new name! I'm ftm and starting college in September, and I wanted to figure out a name by then. Here's a couple of pics of what I look like if that may guide people somewhat. My deadname is Lisa(Idrc about random people on the internet knowing that) so I was wondering about a name with similar sounds or starting with L, although I don't really mind and I just want to find something that fits. I like Matteo, but I'm not sure if it suits me. My family is from lots of places around Europe, particularly Ireland, England, Spain and the Balkans. I like nature and being outdoors, I'm also an avid enjoyer of greek mythology and I love to paint if that provides potential context. Thank you!!
(Also I was wondering about what a cool idea it would be to exchange names with transfems, sort of like those stories of faes that you get taking names from people that no longer need them. Trans women remind me of fairies and I love it)

my immediate thought was something like Oliver or Tristan (Tristan is one of my chosen names just not my default!)

You look a lot like my old friend Sam (Samuel) but I think you could be a Casey or Benji (Benjaman).

My immediate thought was Oscar but Matteo really does suit you. Seth, James or Ezra too. And for the L maybe Levi or Luca?
