I love that Jane Schoenbrun choose Jane for themselves because they had a deadline for locking the credits on World's Fair

I just want to inform everyone that when I told my mum about changing my name, she told me she wasn't surprised.

TRANS NAME CHANGE

[beans-tour-diary]

Day 329

I feel like I want a new name. But maybe I just want to be seen as a new person and not be connected to who I was.

The name I'm going by right now is a nickname for my birth name. Most of my family and my friends have been using it since before I figured out I'm trans. It's also gender neutral and a name that's actually used in scandinavian countries.

Still, it feels like especially my close family doesn't see me as who I am. It seems like they still see me as some kind of girl I never really was. I'm pretty sure this influences my issues with my name a lot.

I have been looking for fitting names a lot, but nothing really feels like me. Even if so many are really pretty! Of course it's also just scary to change something big like this and having to tell people.

Maybe I'll wake up some day and have a solution for all of this.

Bitches be introducing themselves with their new name and having panic attacks about it. It's me I'm bitches

[rotinhellandyou]

my name, my current name, is a gender neutral shortening of my birthname. i like it right now. i’m pretty happy with it. so long as people actually use it and treat it like my name, and not just as an optional nickname.

today i heard someone else going by my name

using my name

and i’m usually not one to get hung up on names but this one kinda pissed me off

because it wasn’t just my birthname no

it was my name

just my name

multiple times and only my name

never the long version, only the short one

and it’s not like i feel the name belongs to me

it’s not just mine and i know that

but the fact that someone else was so easily called it

is so easily called it

it and only it with no variation

makes me feel like shit

someone else. a girl. is respected enough for that.

they respect it enough to use a nickname and a nickname only, when it isn’t even that important

they’ll respect a nickname preference that staunchly when it is truly a nickname

but people won’t call me my name

because it is my name

my actual name

not my nickname, my name

it’s my name. and people won’t use it. but they will as a nickname for another girl.

i am not a girl. i am not the girl my birthname suggests.

i am a boy. i am a boy who uses my name.

i don’t say “oh but my friends call me name” during roll call to imply a nickname.

i say “i go by name.” clearly. that’s it. i don’t leave room for interpretation or suggestion. i say what the name i use is.

this random girl gets respected enough for a name preference to be listened to.

but i, someone who am pretty clear that no my name is not a preference, it is in fact my name, am not listened to.

it just feels like they don’t deserve to have my name almost, even though i know that’s bullshit.

i would be so happy if i was called my name that much. i would be so thankful. i would cherish that. and it feels like others are just brushing that off and giving it up.

it feels like others are taking something i would kill and die for as nothing to ever be serious about. and even though i know it’s not directed at or even remotely about me at all, it still hurts a bit. hurts a bit to see someone taking something so important to me for granted.

How do storms get their names?

Somewhere, someone sits on their porch, they listen to the thunder rumbling in from afar and sit through a period of unpredictable weather, the sky as tumultuous as their soul.

A decision has been made. I feel it in the electric warmth around them.

I know not who they are, nor the length and depth of the journey they have taken for me. But I feel it. Slowly I churn, turning over and over in anticipation, reaching desperately with my winds; a swirling mass of tension.

Then they are there, staring up into my soul, feelings of apprehension, and confusion clash against the certainty in their eyes, I do not know whose feelings are whose.

It is over as swiftly as it came. Their absence fades with a soft smile. I feel it upon me now, within my very being. A name.

Electric. A flash, a jolt as powerful as anything runs through me and I roar with all the power of a name bestowed upon me. I ravage the land, strike with fear and fire. Give life and take it. They will speak of me, mutter my given name.

As I fade, tired and lethargic, I wonder. What journey must they take in order to give a name. The winds have always implied that a name given, is a name carefully constructed, decided and debated till the very moment it departs their soul for mine. But in that moment of connection I felt my turbulence mirrored.

Perhaps the decision was not to gift a creation; but to sacrifice, carve off and cast away an appendage of their past.

I feel the weight of this title, it gives me great strength. I am honoured to take this weight from their shoulders and carry it far, far away.

How do you decide between two names as a trans person?? I flipped a coin to see if I'd be disappointed or happy from the outcome, cause I saw that somewhere. It was actually a milk bottle cap but whatever. I felt mixture of relief and disappointment both times and I don't know what to do about it

[touch-starved-lurker]

No medical confirmation or psychological evaluation necessary. The law will be active by the 1st of November this year.

First names can also be changed while changing gender. One all inclusive package with minimum effort.
