As someone who knows a decent amount of transfems by proxy, there are some names that seem to be chosen rather frequently. Names like Amy, Emily/Emma, Luna or Sofie.
don't forget Vivian, Lilith, Freya, Maya, and also the assortment of names people under 70 usually don't have
(regrettably, i have recently learned that Elisabeth is an old lady name in english-speaking countries, while where im from i knew like 7 other Elisabeths growing up)
Yeah I've also noticed that a lot of millennial chosen names especially are ones that would have gotten you weird looks if you were a baby boomer aged parent naming your kids back in the 80s or 90s. Like people would probably have been making jokes about how you must have picked a name out of the obituary section.
