Grace is part of the “Virtue Names” group along with Prudence, Temperance, Verity, and others. Those were unilaterally feminine name when they’ve been used in the past, and I don’t believe that’s changed much. Most people will see it as feminine. That said, if you really like the name, use it. It’s gender neutral by virtue of you, a non-binary person, using it. But you said you’d want to avoid further misgendering, so you might not want to use the name, sadly.

also you can name yourself after something adjacent to Ryland Grace, either a name that’s similar but gender neutral or a name that’s related to something notable about him
