I'm gonna vaguepost about a fanfic I read bc I'm jewish and pissed. genderbend of Neil that turned "Abram" to (for some fucking reason) "abra" ???
Let's take a moment for some bible study: the father of the jewish people ye old Abraham's (אברהם) original name is actually Abram (אברם). only after he finished completing the will of g-d did the hebrew letter ה (h) (which is the letter of g-d bc its in g-d's name) get added to his name (and that of his wife!!) to make his closer to g-d.
Neil's middle name, the name his mother used for him when hiding or on the run, being Abram has a fascinating (and probably unintentional) jewish connotation. He's still on his journey, not yet reached his end of settling down peacefully!
SO if you're genderbending/trans-ing him, it would only make sense to change "Abram" to "Sarai", the name abraham's wife Sarah had before she and was also given the "h".
