You can change your name, it doesn't matter how often you change it, it doesn't matter however many names you go by, if you want to, you can change it, you could change it every week, every month, every year, it doesn't matter, you can change your name, don't feel bad about it

Saw a post that said "Femme Aziraphale does her lipstick in the mirror of Crowley's sunglasses".

And yes. Yes, I agree.

I just told my mom about my name change and I can't tell if she's supportive or not, but she did call me by my chosen name so that's good! I'll also be putting that name on school papers n stuff and hopefully getting used to that (I had to get a parent or legal guardian's permission due to laws in stuff it sucks :[

I’m glad she’s using it and that you’re able to use your name at school!

How to find a name that is you

I just saw another post where someone couldn't find a name that felt like them/'is' them, and since I overcame that after years of struggeling, I need to share how I did it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I cannot find a name that feels like it's me. I find names that I think are cool but they quickly feel wrong after the novelty wears off, sometimes after hours sometimes days."

I feel you. I had the exact same struggle and now I've been with my name for a while and it's probably the one I'll stick with. I did all the same things you did and the names never ended up being 'me' even if they were cool as heck. What helped me was a change in strategy. I asked myself "what purpose does a name serve?" -> describing me in one word and giving people a first impression. And that ended up being where I went wrong. I did find cool names but not my name. Because I ignored myself in the equation.

So what I did was exersices to visualise who I am, like writing all my defining characteristics and hobbies (And who I WANTED to be!) down

and narrowing names down by criteria of what I personally wanted regardless of what name it was. (Like no foreign name, however beautiful they might be, realistically I should pick a name that doesn't make me sound like an anime character, and most noun names because they don't work as well in my native language. English people can call themselves rain and i am jealous.)

But yeah, tldr; find who YOU are first (or who you want to be, ideally both), so you know what you are even trying to name.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(And don't let people stress you into making a decision, I had a placeholder name for years) sorry this is so long but it's a topic close to my heart so I wanted to be thorough.

Learning who you are (especially if you're young/a minor) takes time. So, so much time. And sometimes you just have to be patient and put in the work. Do not stess about it. You don't owe anyone anything. And having a placeholder is also perfectly valid.

help me make my name official!!

hello everyone! I'm reaching out to ask for some assistance regarding filing for a name change in my state of residence in the United States. I understand many of us are low on money, or are donating to other causes, but even sharing this post and/or link is very much a kindness.

Any excess funds will be donated to Trans Lifeline!

list of mixed name ideas (nov 5, 2024)

in this list, there's any type of names (mostly for english-speaking people though): typical first names, noun names, mythology names, etc.

i sorted them into three categories: androgynous, feminine and masculine.

if you have more ideas of names for trans folks, writers, etc, just lemme know! (Can also be not-so-cool names for the writers, we need them for the asshole side characters :3)

i update the list every time I have a lot of new name suggestions. this is not the newest version, but you can find it under the tag #updated name list on my profile.
