    Hey, so I'm having trouble picking a gender neutral name. I want it to start with the same letter as my birth name, and right now I am thinking of either Emery, Embry, or Em, but my Uncle is named Emery, so I'm not sure if I should use it, Em sounds a little to feminine, and someone told me that the name Embry reminds them of the word embryo. Does anyone have any suggestions for names like these?

    Hmm...
    Emerson?
    Emmett?

    That's all I can think of that start with Em-. Maybe try browsing baby name sites for inspiration.

    Good luck.

    I actually really like Embry, I would have never thought of the embryo thing. The
    Other than that, I can't think of too much else...

    I don't have any advice for names, but I can say that what helped me was envisioning people using my name and me introducing myself. It helps you get a feel for the name.
