My parents had told me I was either going to be a junior or Gus. They named the dog Gus instead. I got named after a good friend of theirs.
If I had to choose, I'd go with Eric for some reason

Mom said I would have been Dennis, so I'll go with that. Dennis is a family name for us! My parents had twin baby boys who died at a day old, about a year and a half after I was born. Their names were Dennis and David, so I imagine if I had been a boy, I would have been one of those. I would choose David. |

If I had been a boy my name would have been Eric, so I guess I'll go with that.

If I'd been a boy I was going to be either Craig or Grant. Out of the two, I prefer Craig.

I would have been Rory, had I been born a boy. But, I'd chose Graeme. I love the name and spelling. I wanted to name my daughter Rory but ended up with Caitlin. I still love the name Rory and she says that if she wants to name her daughter, if she has one, that name. Btw, Graeme is a cool name. |

Gosh I don't know what I would choose and have no clue what, if any, boy name my parents had picked if I had been born male.
I kinda thought it would have been nice if Caitlyn Jenner had allowed her mother to help with the new name. The mom is so supportive and it would have been another way to complete the family transformation. Has anyone read anything as to why or how he picked Caitlyn?

Well my name could be either a boy or a girl, so I'd keep it but spell it differently. I don't see Peasapie being a good male name. Personally I would have to say Roger in honor of my Mom. She had six sons and none of them are named Roger, yet when my two sisters and I were pregnant she kept trying to get one of us to use the name Roger if it was a boy. She kept saying that she loved the name. WTH? Six boys, not one Roger and my youngest brother's name is actually a combination of my two oldest brothers middle names because she couldn't think of a name she liked.  |

My mom says if I was a boy I would have been Christopher, so I guess I'll go with that. my DD would have been Scott or Luke if she had been a boy. |

Had I been a boy I would've been Thomas and I'd go with that except I have a grandson named Thomas. I'd pick Lee James as that was the name youngest DD would've been given had she been a boy.

Well, my brother got the name I would have had if I was born a boy, so I can't use that one.
So gosh, I don't know. I'd have to think about that.
I think I would want a name that was similar in popularity for my age, kwim? So if my name was in the top 10 when I was born, then I'd probably look at the top 10 list for boys from that year.

I honestly have NO clue. How very uncreative of me. I am sitting here scratching my head, and nothing is jumping out. I just can't picture being a man I guess.  ETA: Ok got it! lol (Yes I really put some thought into this apparently). My middle name is Rae, after my Dad and deceased older brother (Raymond). Sooo... I think I would pick Raymond!  |

I would have to pick from three. My favorite boy names are Owen and Leo, and the closest masculine of my name would be James, using Jimmy tho.

I'm keepin' my own name thank you very much. It's already gender neutral. ;-) I'd change to using my middle name, which is nowhere near gender neutral, but I've always wished I'd been called that instead of my first name. Or maybe I'd go with my maiden name, which can also be a first name and was my maternal grandfather's first name as well as my father's last name. I always wished my parents had named my brother after my mom's dad. |

My name is Jackie (Jacqueline), so I would go by Jack. Anything else and I don't think I would ever learn to respond.

If I had been a boy my mum had chosen the names Craig Andrew. When I was a little kid I *loved* the name Craig. That would not be my choice today though.
I would probably choose either Josh or Jake or Gus.

I'd go with Rhys. I liked that name when the Tudors was on HBO. I'd go with that.

Caitlyn is the Irish spelling and it means Peace. That is part of the rason she chose that name. |
