Just to have some conversation here I’m curious how you chose your name if you’ve already chosen one and what the story behind it is? And if you haven’t chosen your name yet, maybe people are able to help you decide.
As for me it was always pretty clear which name I would choose because a few years before even realising I’m trans much less coming out I asked my mum what name I would have gotten if I was born a girl. She told me that I always successfully hid my genitals on every ultrasound picture (kind of prophetic in hindsight) so my parents had to choose a name for both possibilities. And thus a name was already chosen for me that fit perfectly. 🥰
I’m curious to hear your stories!
I tend to write in scratchy half cursive letters and i draw capitals rather large and the rest very small except the tall letters very tall and thin (like lower case L and f, long swooping j or g, long stemmed d’s)
So I wrote my on a nametag for work one day as the label maker was broken (still pretransition but very near finally starting) and I wrote “Eddie” in my weird scrawl. A customer mistook the d’s for l’s and pronounced it Ellie and it kinda stuck in my brain forever lol.
