Most metals work pretty well

Aluminum
Bismuth
Mercury
Nickel (some people are already named this, but spelled Nicole)

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 20 points 2 months ago

Nickel... spelled Nicole

That's some crazy pronunciation if those two sound similar.

With how many trans women name themselves after gemstones, more trans men should name themselves after metals

Would anyone willingly choose Al for a name (short for aluminum). Steel, or Tin is maybe cool, but the nickname options for like Titanium are pretty bad.

Touché

There's still some pretty good options. Titus, Titan, Ty, Ti (Tee I).

[–] MBM@lemmings.world 2 points 2 months ago

Tin

Stannum sounds okay-ish too

[–] fubbernuckin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

That would be pretty metal

[–] Apeman42@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Cobalt would be a pretty sick name.

I swear, if one of y'all says some silly-ass name...

Steven Universe...

The fact that Bismuth is a gem implies that there are other metals, and I wanna meet Tungsten

Also on the topic of gems, that's a goldmine (so to speak) for this thread. Rutile, Amethyst, Zirconia, Phosphophyllite, Cinnabar, Padparadscha, Bort, etc

she's massive.

Tiny! but massive.
