Hello my dears :3
So rn I’m going by Jamie and there’s a lot I really like about this name. Its meaning works well (she, who supplants), it’s the name of my favorite skater when I was a kid, it does have a nice ring to it.
But when I chose it to play with, I didn’t know where my journey would lead to. Now that I do I’m just not sure I like the ambiguity.
That being said, I wonder, how did you all pick your new names? Does it have a special meaning to you? Anything in particular that made you go like “Yes, that’s it, that’s me!”?
€: Thanks for sharing everyone (and keep going :3)! Definitely some inspiration in there.


I nicked my name from a health care worker in the hospital I was in while I was first figuring out my gender. I changed the spelling to feel more me
Awe, what an honor. Do they know?
I don’t think so. I was in and out of hospital a lot as a kid and wish I could say thank you to the lovely people that helped me get through it all.
