I named myself after my favorite demon, Andras, and that's my own little naming story (*^▽^*) | Heya there, I had a question for all my trans pals! If you're transgender, I'm curious on the matter of how you chose your own name? Since your parents didn't pick it for you, I'd love to hear the story of how and why you picked your own name! Maybe you named yourself after your favorite character? Or chose a name whose meaning you really liked? Or something else entirely? No matter the reason, I'd love to hear your own naming story! After all, names and why they're specifically chosen is a topic very interesting to me (❁´◡`❁) | image tagged in montyslittleguy announcement template 3,name,names,hello my name is,transgender | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Oh, wow, that really is clever! I guess it is a bit nice to have a name you're familiar with, yet comfortable with and that relates to your identity 🤠 I did something like that myself before, too, but ended up not really liking what name I chose after a while `(*>﹏<*)′

My friend stayed with his name because it was a androgynous name that sounded more masc then fem
1 up, 3y
Aw, that makes me wish androgynous names were the more popular name types- I mean, it'd honestly save a lot of hassle with legal name changing and whatnot, though it's nice to hear that your friend didn't have to struggle through any of that legal bs \^o^/ Really makes me wonder as to how we even decided on what names were more masculine and which were more feminine though 🤔

I haven’t yet told anyone I even have a new name in mind
But I do
I came up with it just thinking about names, certain energies I wanted them to give off
And then I found one that I currently think is perfect but I haven’t told anyone yet so I can still change if I want to.

Oh, I've always loved the types of "energy" names can give off, too (said energy often being found through the names meaning, for me)! It reminds me of how, when I was really young, I used to name my characters either really generic stuff, like "Steve", or really complex, nonsense stuff, like "Hefkoe" (basically a keyboard smash of a name, lmao o(><;)o). Nowadays, however, I always make sure to perform a bit of name researching in order to find names who have meanings that can accurately represent my characters! In turn, the names sound a lot better than "Steve", but make a lot more sense than "Hefkoe" 😂
Anyways, I hope you're able to decide on a name that you like! Maybe ask your friends to call you by the names you're questioning, which is so that you can see if they feel right to you or not (´・ω・`)? Never be afraid to experiment around with your name, as names are a very important thing! Just make sure it's something that you're comfortable with (❁´◡`❁)

Yeah, experimenting is a good tip. I have a few game characters/usernames using my changed names, and I like the most recent one but I also still feel some love for an older one.
Such a tough choice.

Yeah, choosing a single name from all the hundreds of thousands of names out there can be rather difficult- Hmmm... Maybe pick the one you like best for a first name, then make the other your middle name (´・ω・`)? It's a simple solution, so it might not work for you, though it is just a suggestion.

Oh no
Uh, right
Middle name
Right

Huh-? Sorry, I'm a bit confused by what you're trying to say-

I forgot about the middle name
I don’t have one planned
1 up, 3y,
1 reply
Oh, that's okay! *^____^* Just take your time with choosing one, as middle names are just as important as any other name! I myself just made my middle name after my favorite original character's first name (~ ̄▽ ̄)~
