My original name has no male counterpart, so I nerded to forge something anew.
I made a large list of names of my language whose letter started with A (same letter as my old name), didn't have a female counterpart and I liked the pronounciation. Then I risked off the names that only very old people used, which were 75% of the list. The remaining list was about eight names. "Abel" was the most common of them.
I noticed afterwards that my parents (if they weren't transphobic cucks) would have liked this name. When I asked them how they picked my name, they said that they wanted it to start with A, be simple to write, short, with no variant spellings, beautiful, with a good meaning and not too common. Also, they're christians.
