HelpRe: Gender-bending Mythology/Biblical names?
in reply to a message by MasterCiaraXo
I like Maria as a a middle name for men (ex. Rainer Maria Rilke and Erich Maria Remarque). I'm fine with the tradition of naming people after saints regardless of gender and stuff like that, when it's meaningful.
I think it's okay, too, when it evolves as a NN from an opposite gender form, like Artemidoros to Artemas (or Artemis).
I've never thought of Tristan as mythology. I don't love it for either gender, and I don't mind it as unisex.
Beyond those reasons, I probably wouldn't like it.
