Lucille,
I was lucky and kinda got to grow into my name I was given before birth. My parents didn’t know if I was going to be a boy or a girl, didn’t know was going to be girl or girl… When I was young I learned that if I was born full girl I was going to be called Jennifer. Ever since I have felt that should of been my true name so was an easy choice.
Jennifer
I took Jamie as my fem name and have been slowly using it every where. Using Jamie let me to continue using my screen name and seems to be easier for my friends and relatives with whom I came out to. Has made it easier with my credir cards and some forms of ID.
Hi lucille,
I chose my name , well actually my girlfriend did. It fit since my given name is Mark. The Claire part came from my grandmother, her name was Clara. So Claire seemed fitting and both names sounded good together….
Marijo is short for Marilyn Josephine, though I have never used the full name, My birth intials are M & J so to ease the eminent permanent name change I decided to use them. Marilyn, of course after the one and only, Ms Monroe, and Josephine is in honor of my great grandfather Joseph.
Hi Lucille!
Indeed, it’s great to able to choose your own name. I know that my first name will be Wynona, because it sounded more appealing than Winnifer as a feminine form of Winfield, my middle name, and I could have Winn or Winnie as potential nicknames. I am unsure about my middle and last name, if I’m going to keep my family name (I’m only 16, so it’s a bit hard to change my name). My family has a history of having at least one person in every generation have the initials WDE, and my generation broke the combo. For my middle name, I’m thinking of Dawn, but I haven’t decided yet. I also love the name Aubrey, but it doesn’t read very nicely with Wynona.
Well my name is Jessie Elizabeth. In actuality I did not choose my name, my wonderful mother has taken a part in my transition and Jessie Elizabeth is the name that she chose for me. I often wonder how may of our mothers have and take the opportunity to participate in the renaming of their sons and/or daughters. Jessie was my great grandmother’s name and Elizabeth was my great great aunt’s name, of whom I am look very much like. My mother says that she watched me go from a reclusive, shy person who did not know who I really was; to a poised, confident, outgoing woman; and that I have transitioned into a natural lady.
Lucille I have really enjoyed reading your suggestions.
Thanks,
Jessie Elizabeth
I chose the name Terra (latin word meaning earth) because of my love for all things nature. I felt a strong connection to it when it popped in my head and I like the uniqueness it has.
when i was in my early teens,i wondered what my name would be if i had been born a genetic female instead of male. i thought of the femme form of my maule name which would have been jerri. but to my suprise, my father and stepmother had a daughter and would’nt you know it, they named her jerri lynn, the very name i had chosen for my self. when i finally came out three years ago, i thought about and experimented with a few different names but none of them felt right. i gave it some thought and realised that no matter which name i choose, iwas always going to be the product of my parents. they had given me life as their son but they did;nt know that i was also longing to be their daughter as well. then it came to me, lee ( my fathers middle name) and ann( my mothers) so i put them together. as for my last name, well just spell it backwards and it will make sense.
