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.
That’s a beautiful approach. Not a lot of hope that my parents will accept me when coming out, but if they do, I might ask if they had anything in mind.
Thankfully my parents are very accepting especially my mother. She was so happy when I told her that this was the name I chose. She told me the name before because it came up what my brother and I would have been called a few years before I came out and I savoured it ever since :)
