I think it would be interesting to keep a catalogue of tranny names that can easily identify them as trans.

I’ll start:
Sophie
Alice
Persephone
Lilith
Clara (or Clarissa)


These are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head but if you can add more go ahead.

(Very) Less likely to be a troon:
Katelyn (or kaitlyn, any sort of variation)
Abigail
Catherine
Amy

And I guess the list goes on.
 
Arson, for FTMs and MTFs.

I don't think I've ever seen a tranny named Persephone, any examples?

In an old FFXIV guild there was a tranny named Persephone, I thought it was just their username but they actually changed it to that IRL. Anecdotal, yes, but it still happened.
 
Have seen trans women with 3 of the first 4 names in OP's post, although I think Caitlyn/the like are a lot less common because of Caitlyn Jenner. I generally don't judge people who pick relatively common names, but when someone's named Paprika or whatever, I'm just reminded of another post here, where someone said that these people choose these names because they want an IRL username.
 
The super funny trend that I've seen a decent amount is when someone really doubles down on both being trans and their Jewish identity, and gives themself an old-timey Biblical name like Solomon or Ruth or Esther
 
I swear all forms of the name Isabel are cursed. Belle, Bella, Isabelle, Izzy, so many MTFs. Why? I don't know. There's the one from Animal Crossing, the Disney princess, and the main character from Twilight. I think they pick the name out of vanity because it can mean beautiful.
 
For the TIMs, I've noticed flower names are common - Rose, Lily, Violet, Daisy mainly. Also mythological names - Freya, Persephone, Venus. Some tend to go for difficult to pronounce Celtic names too, particularly if they fancy themselves as witches - Aoibheann, Saoirse. Noticed a few going for very old fashioned names too - Gretchen (Felker-Martin, author of the troon zombie novel Manhunt), Doreen (the r/antiwork guy) and Mildred (Thought Slime, mega-woke youtuber who's recently come out as non binary.)

With TIFs it's mainly the sort of names millennial parents are giving their sons nowadays - there's the infamous Aiden/Cayden/Jayden etc. and Elliot, Kai and Noah, but there's also Jasper, Rowan, Phoenix, Theo, Leo, Oliver, Finn, Chase, Connor... Really it's anything you'd expect to hear on a love interest in a YA paranormal romance novel or a teen popstar with a horrible zoomer perm. Or they'll just straight up rip off the name of a character popular in online fandom circles - Loki, Draco etc.

Either way, if it's troons renaming themselves, you almost never see them picking a name common amongst their age group, or one from their family tree.
 
Anytime the name is spelled in a quirky way with a Y you know its a troon. For example Alyx, Myk. Etc.
