Hello.

So, I’m kind of a late bloomer trans dude. Though I was 15 when I started to experience dysphoria and such, I spent all of highschool in “girlmode” and graduated a woman.

I used to, as a nickname even IRL, go by my former online name “Angelica”. However, Angelica isn’t a very masculine name and you won’t get very “manly” vibes from it. I’m looking for stuff maybe similar to Angelica or fit my vibe of “cutesy”, “femboy”, etc. Maybe names that symbolize kindness or good/light.

one of the advanced search options on Behind the Name is "community impression." you can also search by language of origin, languages that commonly use it currently, etc, and, of course, by gender. I picked five and polled my friends and there was a clear winner.
