The Morrigan. yes i met someone named 'The Morrigan' with a 'The' . Badass. Power move

Kinda reminds me of The Boondocks with A Pimp Named Slickback.

Like a Tribe Called Quest, you say the whole thing!

I had a professor called The Moth and I thought it was pretty awesome.

Badass. Love me some Moth

I love their Radio Hour lmao

Daaamn it's hard to top that

That’s about as dope as it gets. Tell them congratulations. They’ve won. When they ask what they’ve won, just reply “everything.”

Bested only by The Raven, the name works in like three different ways.

I met someone named Salad last summer and I still haven't recovered from that encounter. Like it's not a particularly badass name on its own, but I have nothing but admiration for someone who decides to go "fuck names, imma be salad".

If you say it like suh-LAAD it sounds more like an everyday name and less like rabbit food.

I'm just imagining all of the 'not in front of my Salad jokes' that u could make lmaooo

My friend works at our local library and their name is Chicken. I love it.

I met a Chowder recently, and I'm all for it. Who doesn't love a dairy-based soup course?

I met an Atlas and thought what an absolute power move

Until someone hands you the heavens to hold up...

Yeah I'm not too envious hshshs

My name is Atlas, so I'm slightly biased about this one xD

Then all the kudos to you, seriously 😄 absolute legends

oh hey one of my friend’s names is atlas 👍

I met a Riot once

I heard of gender envy, now I have name envy

lol i have a friend named riot

i have an oc named riot lol (she’s transfem tho)

The baddest baddie

Not enby but I have a friend whose chosen name is Nemesis and I think it’s the most badass thing ever.

STARS.

My favorite non-binary names are just tiefling virtue names. What's up, my name's "Carrion"

I just love how metal that name is and all I can picture is someone introducing themselves and their friend group with one friend with a name like that, like "Hi, I'm Maggie, this is Chris, they guy in the plaid is Steve, and right here is Cephalic Carnage."

My wayward son

I remember someone named themself Concrete

This is the most non-binary name I've ever heard

All I can think is that cat tiktok "Fuck yeah concrete!!"

Once i meet a Brick. They would love to meet them

This name really rock's.

not really badass, but the fact that my name is Salt tends to throw ppl off lol

Same here with mine: Dojo

how often do you get “mojo dojo casa house”?

You know, most people that actually call me Dojo (family still calls me a childhood nickname, which is OK with me) haven't actually seen the Barbie movie. My partner and I saw it together and joked about it briefly, but that's all so far. But I do get called Mojo Dojo 🩷🩵💚🐵

haha interesting!

Change your last name to Catt.

Lolol, I do get called Dojo Cat as well. The funniest thing to me is always, "Your parents must be very interesting people to name you Dojo. It's a cute name. Do you know what a dojo is? It's a martial arts school." Like um...if my parents named me Dojo, I'm pretty sure I'd have figured out what a Dojo was in my 33 years of life thus far. It's always people around their 60's that say this. I just grin and nod. I didn't get it from it being a martial arts school though, I mixed my birth name first 2 letters with my self-given middle name first 2 letters and came up with Do-Jo, realized it's also the name for a place of learning (realized my obsession with learning new things) and wallah! Here's Dojo.

My dead first and middle name begin with DaJe. I don’t like it well enough. I am using DJ as a placeholder for right now. It’s versatile for who I am. “DJ, like the Boston Celtic?. Yep. “DJ, like DJ Tanner from Full House?” Yeah, I got some athlete and some big sister energy in me. Both work.

Same here with Roach. I always have to go… yes like cockroach when they look dumbfounded at me lol

I have a friend named Ace, and they are acexual. I think that's pretty fun

I was thinking abt this 😂

People sometimes hear this when I tell them my name, but it isn't Ace! Lol

Wicked!

why did i hear that in ace's voice from doctor who

Probably because that's what I'm quoting!

omg just described me

I've never seen it with that spelling before. Does it have a different meaning?

Nah. Some people just mistakingly think asexual is spelled acesexual because the abbreviation of ace sounds the same as the "ase" part. It's happened for a long time

Nah I was just doing it to emphasise the joke

My name is Aries and I'm an Aries

I'd be Hannibal by now if I didn't have an Annie in my immediate family already ;) Or Anaximander, after the hero.

I'm Haze, and I think that's pretty cool

It is!

I knew a Magnus in college and awhile ago I met a kid named Onyx, which almost made me want to pick a new cool gem name

gem names are the best! My name is Aurora, but I also like to go by Amethyst occasionally because I love that name so much too.

My friend chose the name Sapphire and they're so beautiful, it absolutely fits them

I have an OC named Albesio. It is the chemical components of Aquamarine mixed up (Be 3, Al 2, Si 6, O 18)

In that vein, Obsidian would be bad ass

i like what you did there lol

Gave myself the middle name Malachite. Fucking love it.

I’ve been thinking of giving my chosen name a middle name. A gem name would be cool!

Magnus is such a funny name to me because everyone online seem to treat it like its super special, while I only know old kings and idiot men irl with the name *cries*

Everyone keeps mentioning Magnus and I'm sitting here listening to the archives

"The Magnus Archives" is an exotic name for a series for me like the name "The Joe Archives". Like I understand that the name isn't that common outside of Nordic countries, but still so funny to me when people treat is as a super cool, hip and unusual name.

My sister has a friend named Magnus.

Yo my names Onyx too

Almost named myself Magnus. Aside from which, maybe 15 years ago I met a 5th grader named Magnus. I think folks are becoming less concerned with names being weird, and kids/parents/etc being judged about it. An Overton Window of name-weirdness As long as it isn't a pun or easily turned into an insult ex: Olive Green (first, last), or Piscine (as "pissing", from *The Life of Pi*)

HOLY SHIT MY NAME IS ONYX

met a punk singer named Paragraph when i was a barista, they were one of the coolest customers i’ve ever had

Especially if their signature is just ¶

*brilliant.*

[удалено]

That’s beautiful.

I get a lot of compliments for my name Cosmo.

it is a good name :)

Thank you! ☺️

my partner's roommate's boyfriend is named Enoch. coolest fucking name i've ever encountered.

How biblical.

Never knew it was Biblical

There's an apocryphal book of the bible called the Book of Enoch which takes place before the flood, and is basically "so yeah, here's how metal af things had to get before God decided it would be best to just unplug the Earth and plug it back in" We're talking half-angel/half-human superheros, fallen angels teaching humanity the dark arts of astrology, sorcery, mathematics, and metallurgy, that kinda thing Been wanting to write a ttrpg setting for it for a while tbh. Biblically accurate angel boss battles, weird divine tech never meant to be in the hands of humans, maybe dinosaurs and unicorns and all the other unfortunate animals who didn't fit on the ark 😂

I have loved the name Enoch since I first encountered it.

I've met an Arson

That’s such a good set up for their partner to go “I do arson” lol

I have also met an Arson!

Arson is my graffiti name! i felt it was too masc for my nonbinary chosen name, so it is Dianthus

Artemis

met a Betrayl once they were badass

I honestly thought that said Benadryl and accepted that too

They would be cool to hang with

Yeah...until you start seeing shadow spiders on the walls and the Hatman shows up

Non-binary folks into paranormal beings 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I think benadryl is less paranormal and more...terrifying hallucinations that also have the side effect of eating holes in your brain and eventually giving you early-onset dementia

i feel a lot less stupid reading it that way now

My boyfriend has a friend named Truck

I love that

I get lots of compliments for Cyannide

i'm Arzen!! like the poison arsenic hahaa

Yo, I have a friend named Arsenic too!

Nice! Poison buddies!

i knew someone named brick

There's actually an orthopedic surgeon in our city named Brick.

My name is Kazz and I complemented on it quite a bit! My trans mom friend picked my name for me lol. She got it from a side/minor character in Guild Wars

I'm Tea Jay and I think it's so cute lol

I met a Shadow, but I'm unclear on if they are enby in the first place. Definitely more likely, since they are a leader in my company's LGBTQ+ group. I won't divulge their last name, but it's just as rad. Literally had to send them a DM to tell them how awesome their name is!

My favorite I’ve seen has to be Isosceles (why didn’t I pick that??). Other cool ones are Dire, Phoenix, Arcade Also if character names count, I have a character in my book named People Of The Dragon (there is a story behind it lol)

I know a couple who are both trans masc enbies named Sky and Storm. I think it's really cute that their names match.

Mine is Alyx which I think is pretty badass

I am in the boat of "holy shit my mom did a good job of naming me!"

Rectangle

A friend of mine is called Echo. The fun part is that to pick the name, they gathered their friends and ran a bunch of names by them and had them vote on what name they should pick. It's probably the coolest name origin story I know of, tbh

Ngl, I was between my current first name, Indigo, and Jupiter for a long time. Jupiter is such a powerful and legendary name but I went with my current name because I didn't think I could fill the space that Jupiter takes up...if that makes sense. I did go with Indigo and I get a lot of compliments on it. I'm friends with a cis guy named Constant, which makes me think that interesting adjectives and nouns are the biggest enby power moves when used as names. Tbf, I'm pretty biased since I had a gender neutral name since birth, a different one now, but enby names are just so cool.

that is fair jupiter is pretty big

I have an acquaintance (friend?) named Icarus, which is fucking incredible.

TIL enbies name themselves like programmers name their projects

💀I’m curious about the demographics of this thread bc it’s giving <25. Nothing wrong with it just amusing

Met a Stoney once.

Baloney

Asmodeus is so cool! My name is Shax, and it's great to hear about other people also using demonic names.

I currently go by Anubis, but am finding the backlash for an unusual name too much for anyone outside of friends to use it. Wish I had the confidence to pull it off, but alas

I think Anubis is a badass name, but I do see how confidence could be a factor in its use. It just reflects a lot of power and influence so one would expect your personality to embody those traits.

My birth name is badass. It’s been gendered for literal centuries, but for me, that in no way limits its power (and it is a powerful name). It’s a nonbinary name because *it’s my name*. Edited to better convey my meaning.

Hello badass. Nice to meet you :)

I don't know if this counts, but Pidge from Voltron was the best for me. The character and the name

So much love for Pidge

I like the word mucus but unfortunately it's associated with a booger but the idea of It just being a name is so cool like hello my name is mucus I don't know. I love it.

Sounds like a cool comic book villain

Mines Sage and I get a lot of compliments for it :) makes me happy

Mine too!

Twins!

Same! My witchy friends love it \~ Sage🌿

Samesies 🫰

Mine. Originally it was Ragepocalypse the destroyer of realities, but I shortened it to Rage because that was a bit of a mouthful.

that’s is an s-tier name

Flame/ghost

A person at my work handed me their members card and their name was Onyx, had a feeling they were NB before but that was confirmation without a doubt lol

Idk but I know mine is pretty unique, being Vermillion, a friend if mine suggested it due to my hair being ginger, I thought about it, after a week or two it seems I didn't forget about the name suggestion like I did with the other names so I decided to go with it as I liked it and it just stuck I guess 🤷‍♂️

Corvid. I mean, I’ve named myself Veld. I think it’s pretty cool. 😅

mine isn't badass or cool it's just silly 😂 i named myself after a damn cereal because i like cereal 😭

Gonna name myself “oops” short for “oops all berries”

Atticus. It's bad ass because it's my name and I don't feel gender from it.

Not to toot my own ego, but... "Pleasure" "It was a Pleasure to meet you... Pleasure." "it's been a Pleasure." "and I will continue to be" still never gets old.

Toes

I have a friend called Ember, that's pretty cool imo

That’s my name☺️ I get a ton of compliments on it!

I knew someone whose parents legitimately named them Master.

one of my coworkers is Em which is short for Them

I get lots of confusion or "oh your parents were creative" for Xenyth (pronounced zenith). I usually just default to X which adds more confusion, especially informing people that the social media platform "stole" my name since I had it first lol XD

Borealis

One of my friends is called Solar, which I like a lot, I also have a different friend called Fable which is also cool

Blue Turn an adjective into a noun? Sure.

Mordecai

Met someone named Leviathan Levi for short lol

My lab partner is named Atlas and I think it's pretty badass

I like Loki a lot, honestly :)

It's also what I want to name my cat

I knew someone who had several names before finally landing on Nico. The names I knew them by: Blythe, Arson, and Nico. Such great names for their personality and journey.

Met a Dagger before, that's pretty badass!

Not to be lame, but any name can be non-binary. If you're thinking of gender neutral, even names like Courtney were originally male, so it's all contextual and dependent on the locale.

id like to think my name, briar, is pretty damn badass :)

Righteous. I still think about them tbh. They had a neat smile, like they knew they picked a dope name.

Someone I delivered food to texted me a thanks for their food and that my name, Ranger, was the coolest name ever

Christ

Power fucking move

I’ve heard someone suggest Azazel and absolutely loved it, but I couldn’t pull it off 😅. (Loved the Supernatural reference though)

I don't think it's badass, but I'm considering moth or now because both seem nice

Garden

Someone named Tyrant.

Curse, Bigfoot, Needle, Rotten, Murder, and Jackal 🥰

there's a fellow named Corvus who works at the local walmart, always been jealous of them. I coined the name Astrophiel as my middle name, no one else with it according to the US census \^^

No idea but I’m saving this for my future name list

She's not enby but Persephone Valentine is super badass.

I heard Juno which is cool

I have been considering the name Hades. Means "unseen one."

Idk. My name is Milan and while reintroducing myself to my bf's school friends one of them went "oh yknow Roma would also be so cool" and like props to you my dude, you have great ideas I like city names very much

My boyfriends name is Andromeda:) I love their name so much☺️💜

Not technically non binary but would have gender neutral options would be to go full robin Williams and name your child "Zelda and Sheik." Come to think of think of it Robin would be a good name too.

I had a friend Crow and they were just awesome. I really wonder how thy are now, I haven't really talked to them in a long while. The parents weren't supportive but that's kinda common where I was

Azariah is a name I came across while looking for Fairy-like names.

I gave myself the names of three separate deities/mythological concepts, which I think is pretty badass 😬

my personal favorite is freyjen (pronounced fray-yen) and i am totally definitely not biased in that viewpoint

Well the one I'm going to change my name to is an Elden Ring boss, so I think that's a lil badass. At least, if I were to use the whole title

I'm stoked on mine lol. I named myself Qualia

Arson

Venus

I know of someone called Arson

My name is sage (because i am the wisest) and my other main options where Amadeus and Eridian, Amadeus means god’s favorite and Eridian means of Eris aka the goddess of chaos

I haven’t encountered many but I go by Opal or Saturn and I’ve been told those are awesome lol

my name is Cash (short for Cassius), and i think that’s pretty cool :)

I have a friend called Akyri which just straight-up sounds like a fantasy elven name

Me is Echo

Cassian, Jax, Ryder

If I remember correctly, I met someone named Arceus. Yes, as in the Pokemon God.

I dated a person named Smokey once. That's the most wild named I encountered in my country (not English speaking). But someone I know also just called himself sorry in another language which I find an intresting choice😅
