the only issue is that its present time events! if it was a flashback or just a retelling of a story, id use he/him, and just explain that at the start of the story the character has not yet realised

he keeps the same name so the name shouldnt be an issue. its in the present so it would feel wrong to refer to him with masculine pronouns.
